🔥 Global tension is rising!
In April 2025, the trade and geopolitical confrontation between the USA and China reached a new peak.
• Trade war: The Trump administration raised tariffs on Chinese goods to 145%, prompting China to respond with tariffs of 125% and warnings of sanctions against countries that enter trade agreements with the USA to the detriment of Beijing.
• Aviation tension: Chinese airlines are returning Boeing 737 MAX aircraft to the USA, indicating a deterioration in high-tech relations.
• Financial risks: Speculations about China's potential sale of American bonds are causing concern in financial markets, although analysts warn against such a move due to potential economic consequences for China itself.
• Political sanctions: In response to US sanctions against Chinese and Hong Kong officials, Beijing announced sanctions against American officials and NGO leaders, accusing Washington of interfering in internal affairs.
• Educational restrictions: The USA revoked visas for over a thousand Chinese students, complicating academic exchanges and deepening the cultural divide.
