China is NOT AMERICAS enemy.
America has no intentions on doing anything of the sort.
We just want fair and even TRADE, THAT'S ALL.
THERE SHOULD BE NO TARIFFS
EITHER WAY.
Quoting: Buzzcheeze Well, beyond just the fair trade situation with China artificially pegging its Yuan/RMB currency over the years, then you have the fact that China built those artificial islands in key global shipping lanes within international waters of the South China Sea, promising the whole time not to militarize them and then guess what....they militarized them.
Look at the maps that China claims for its borders. They currently claim territories reaching right into their neighbors' territorial waters and exclusive economic zones, completing ignoring the 200 nautical miles rule.
China has ongoing border disputes with Bhutan, Brunei, India, Indonesia, Inner Mongolia, Japan, Malaysia, North Korea, Philippines, South Korea, Taiwan, Tajikistan, Vietnam.
China's actions tell much more than their words.
