“Trump has realized that he cannot win a front war against China.” Villarroya
José Miguel Villarroya, historian, analyzes the current commercial war between China and the United States, highlighting that Beijing seeks strategic alliances to counteract tariffs imposed by the Trump administration. He points out that the US faces difficulties in maintaining this frontal war, since its economy cannot easily decoup into the Chinese industry.
In addition, Villarroya considers that Trump's speech begins to soften due to the evidence that his strategy is not giving the expected results. Villarroya believes that if China manages to form a block with countries affected by tariffs, the United States will be at a clear disadvantage.
