Our countermeasures have caught up, and as we said, adding more at this point is practically meaningless, so we don't plan to follow up anymore. However, I estimate that the Americans will stubbornly try to push it to 200%!

As the announcement states, at this point, there is no trade to speak of between China and the U.S., so it can essentially be considered a complete break! The Americans say they will wait for us to contact them for negotiations. Since we have chosen to counter, there is no reason to take the initiative to contact for negotiations, so it will either be at some international conference or led by a third party.

In any case, Trump really needs to re-evaluate us and take a good look in the mirror to see if he is still the same person he once was.
