China pledges to work with the USA under Donald Trump - but more rivalry is expected after he threatened to launch a trade war with Beijing

Daily Mail  

China pledged to work with the US on the basis of mutual respect today as Donald Trump closed in on victory in the presidential election. Trump has threatened to impose harsh tariffs on Chinese imports Xi Jinping reportedly called Trump to congratulate him Donald Trump attends a bilateral meeting with China's President Xi Jinping during the G20 leaders summit in Osaka, Japan, June 29, 2019 Mr Trump previously described China as a ‘strategic competitor’ and imposed tariffs of up to 25 per cent on its imports, triggering reprisals by Beijing. 'Beijing is particularly wary of a potential revival of the trade war under Trump, especially as China currently faces significant internal economic challenges,' said Tong Zhao, senior fellow at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace. 'Going forward, Beijing would likely be drawing up a list of clear bargains and interest tradeoffs that it could float with Washington, in hope that it can focus on its much needed domestic economic concerns whilst Trump's attention is occupied elsewhere,' said Brian Wong, assistant professor at the University of Hong Kong who studies grand strategy. Experts warn Trump is unlikely to continue the same support to Taiwan Trump's re-election will have implications affecting China, Taiwan, Russia and Ukraine Military troops march during a welcoming ceremony for Donald Trump on November 9, 2017 in Beijing, China Taiwan would also be hit by US tariffs, as soon as March 2025 according to economic sources.
