As trade tensions simmer between the world's two largest economies, China's Foreign Ministry has doubled down on its message of collaboration over confrontation. 🌍✨ Spokesperson Mao Ning emphasized Friday that China-U.S. economic ties are a 'two-way street' benefiting both nations, rejecting claims that Beijing seeks imbalanced trade advantages.
No Winners in a 'Tariff War'
💬 'There are no victors in a trade war,' Mao stated, addressing recent U.S. proposals for increased tariffs. The comments come as global markets watch closely for signs of escalation that could ripple through supply chains and consumer prices worldwide.
Dialogue Over Disputes
While acknowledging 'differences and frictions,' Mao highlighted the massive untapped potential for cooperation in tech, green energy, and consumer markets. 💡 'Enhanced dialogue and consultation' could turn trade from a battleground into a bridge, she suggested.
For young professionals tracking global markets, the remarks signal Beijing's push for stable economic foundations amid geopolitical headwinds. Students and diaspora communities will note China's framing of trade as a collaborative tool rather than a zero-sum game.
