#USChinaTensions The U.S.-China trade tension stems from longstanding economic disputes, intensifying since 2018 with the imposition of tariffs on billions of dollars’ worth of goods. The U.S. accuses China of unfair trade practices, intellectual property theft, and currency manipulation, while China criticizes U.S. protectionism. These tensions have disrupted global markets, impacted supply chains, and strained diplomatic relations. Despite several negotiation rounds, fundamental disagreements persist. The trade war has prompted both countries to diversify their trade partners and strengthen domestic industries. Its effects are felt globally, highlighting the interdependence of the two largest economies and the complexity of modern international trade.
