Trump Debocha of China and asks the country to income the US to end the trade war

United States President Donald Trump said liability for a resumption of commercial negotiations between Washington and Beijing is up to China. The statement occurs amid intensification of the tariff conflict between the two countries, after retaliation measures announced on both sides.

The position was communicated by White House Secretary Karoline Leavitt during a news conference on Tuesday, April 15. According to her, Trump stated, “The ball is with China. China needs to make a deal with us. We don’t have to make a deal with them.”

The statements came after China ordered the suspension of Boeing’s aircraft deliveries by their airlines.

In addition, Chinese companies were oriented to interrupt the purchase of aeronautical parts and equipment from US suppliers. The measure directly affects the American manufacturer, which considers the Chinese market as strategic for its growth in the commercial aviation sector.

In a publication on the Truth Social platform, Trump commented on Beijing’s decision by stating that China “just gave up on the great deal with Boeing”, in reference to contracts signed during its first term.

The president also indicated that his administration is conducting conversations with several international partners to establish commercial agreements involving the reduction of tariff barriers. According to the White House, these agreements may result in concessions in recently announced tariff increases.

According to Leavitt, these rates are suspended for 90 days from April 10, with the aim of creating space for the advancement of negotiations. The secretary also reported that Trump is evaluating “at least 15 proposals” and “wishes to personally approve all agreements” that may result from these conversations.

The current stage of the commercial dispute began on April 2, when the United States imposed a 34% tariff on Chinese products.

In response, China announced on April 12 a 125% rate on all imports from the United States. In the last unfolding, Washington raised its rates to up to 145%, reaching strategic sectors of bilateral trade.

The tariff climb led analysts to evaluate the impacts on large exporting companies, especially on aerospace, agricultural and technological sectors.

Boeing, which has already faced previous difficulties related to the 737 MAX safety and production, now sees an additional obstacle with the Chinese decision to stop deliveries and suspend purchases from aeronautical components.

The scenario also makes room for the expansion of the presence of European manufacturer Airbus in the Asian market.

The company already maintains significant operations in China and can benefit from commercial removal between the governments of Beijing and Washington. To date, there have been no public demonstrations by Airbus about the possibility of expanding its performance in the country.

Experts point out that the suspension of Boeing deliveries can have chain effects, reaching suppliers and jobs in the United States.

The company, however, has not yet released an official position on the measures adopted by Beijing.

With the continuity of tensions, diplomats and commercial representatives of both countries have avoided indicating any forecast for the formal resumption of high level negotiations. The White House signaling is that new conversations depend on a concrete initiative by the Chinese government.

Meanwhile, the 90 days of partial suspension of tariffs are being used as a maneuver margin for parallel negotiations with other nations. The strategy, according to government sources, aims to reduce dependence on certain markets and create new export routes to sectors affected by Chinese measures.

The trade war between China and the United States is still out of time for immediate closure, maintaining uncertainties on the direction of the global economy and direct impacts on international productive chains.

The US Administration says it will continue to impose “proportional” measures if there are no concrete advances in the Beijing dialogue.

The Chinese government, in turn, has not yet issued new official statements after Leavitt’s press conference. New answers are expected to be formulated over the next few days, according to the economic consequences of the last decisions to become more visible.
