Trump wants to persuade countries to limit cooperation with China

Donald Trump wants to persuade more than 70 countries to limit cooperation with China in exchange for U.S. concessions on duties.

This is reported by The Wall Street Journal with reference to its sources.

The US presidential administration wants to ask these countries not to buy cheap Chinese goods.

Also, not to ship them American goods and not to allow the registration of Chinese companies to circumvent duties.

In this way, Donald Trump wants to put China at the negotiating table with less leverage.

Trump himself has hinted at such a strategy, saying he would consider forcing countries to choose between the US and China.

Today, Trump wrote that he believes that the duties are in favor of the US and are already producing results.

Recall that the duties imposed on most of the world’s countries have already been suspended.
