In the ongoing US-China tariff war, Chinese authorities have warned other countries against making trade deals with the US that harm China's interests. SMU Associate Professor of Finance Fu Fangjian noted that President Trump's inconsistent remarks make the negotiation outlook uncertain, with neither side gaining a clear advantage. China is collaborating with other nations to address concerns over US policies that disrupt international trade rules. Meanwhile, Trump's trade policies face hurdles, as even allies like Japan have not settled on tariffs after initial talks.
