Buenos Aires: US Treasury Secretary Scott Besant has criticized the Chinese Commerce Minister for dismissing President Donald Trump’s tariff as a “joke”. However, he insisted that a big deal with Beijing could still reach a big deal amidst the increase in trade war between the two economic veterans.
“To be done at some point,” said when asked by Bessent Bloomberg TV Regarding the possibility that the world’s largest economies will decrease.
He said, “There is no need to be there”, he said, “But there can be there.”
Besant insisted that a deal with China would be more difficult than other countries because “China is both our biggest economic competitive and our biggest military rival.”
The world’s two largest economies have been closed in a rapidly growing game of brinkmash as US President Donald Trump launched a global tariff attack that specifically targeted Chinese imports.
Tight-for-tat exchanges have noticed that the levy we have imposed on China have increased by 145 percent, with Beijing set up an anti-retaliation 125 percent band on US imports.
The US side has sent mixed messages as to what it wants to achieve and whether the tariffs that will rock the world economy can be avoided.
The White House recently appeared to dial the pressure, linging tariff discounts for smartphones, laptops, semiconductors and other electronic products, for which China is a major source.
But Trump and some of his top colleagues said on Sunday that the discount was misunderstood and would only be temporary as his team chased fresh tariffs against several items in the list.
“Nobody is moving away from hooks … especially not China, which so far, treats us the most!” He posted on his true social platform.
Besant warned that Trump’s tariff “was not a joke.”
“These are in large numbers. I think no one thinks they are durable who want them to live here.”
China’s Xi Jinping on Monday shut down a visit to South -East Asia with a visit to Vietnam – where he warned that protectionism “would not take anywhere” and a business war “would be no winner.”
Xi’s top leader of Vietnam said, “We should strengthen strategic resolve, jointly oppose unilateral bullying, and maintain the stability of industrial and supply chains along with the global free trade system.”
The White House has stated that Trump remains optimistic about acquiring a trade deal with China, although the administration officials have made it clear that they hope that Beijing will reach before.
Trade war is raising the possibility of an economic recession as dollars dump tumbles and investors dump the US government bonds, usually a safe shelter investment.
