#USChinaTensions ✈️ China Sends $55M Boeing Jet Back to U.S.

Trade Tensions Just Got Turbulent

A brand-new Boeing 737 MAX—valued at $55 million—was supposed to join Xiamen Airlines' fleet. Instead? It’s headed back to the U.S.

📍What Went Down:

The plane passed final checks at Boeing’s Zhoushan facility in China, but just before delivery, the deal was scrapped.

Why? Tariffs made the price skyrocket.

💥 Tariff War Escalates:

U.S. slapped up to 145% tariffs on Chinese goods over trade/IP issues

China fired back with 125% tariffs on U.S. exports—including aircraft

The Boeing jet’s price tag doubled to over $110M

📉 What It Means:

Boeing’s foothold in China is looking shaky

Chinese carriers may pivot to Airbus

Global aviation supply chains could feel the shake

⚠️ Bottom Line:

The U.S.-China trade war just got real—and it’s taking off in the worst way.
