(Updated to 2025)
In 2018, during his first term, Donald Trump initiated the tariff war with China 🇨🇳, imposing heavy tariffs on Chinese products 🇺🇸📦.
This generated a lot of tension and trade retaliation from both sides 🔥.
There were some pauses ⏸️ and negotiations, like the Phase 1 Agreement (2020), but never a complete resolution.
In 2020, Trump lost the election to Biden. During the Biden administration (2021–2024):
Some tariffs were maintained ⚖️.
Biden tried to rebalance the tariffs, focusing more on technology and green products ♻️.
Relations with China became less explosive, but still tense.
Now in 2025, with Trump's reelection:
He has taken a tough stance against China 🚨.
Trump expanded old tariffs and announced new tariffs on even more sectors, including batteries, electric cars, and semiconductors 🔋🚗💻.
Some "pauses" are occurring only on strategic products (such as agricultural products and medications) to protect American interests in the short term 🌽💊.
Negotiations with China have become very tense again and the risk of a new trade escalation is high ⚡.
