Global trade is feeling the heat 🔥 as Chinese Premier Li Qiang doubled down on China's commitment to fairness amid rising U.S. tariff tensions. Speaking at the 17th BRICS Summit, Li called out 'unilateralism and protectionism' for shaking up the world economy like a high-stakes game of Monopoly—but with real consequences.
During a meeting with WTO Director-General Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, Li emphasized China's resolve to protect its rights while championing international cooperation. 'Think of it as a global trade chessboard,' he hinted, 'and everyone needs to play by the rules.' ♟️
