In international politics and economy, those countries have remained successful that with principles, justice, and cooperation have interacted. But the United States, which itself the leader of the global economy considers, in recent years from these principles clearly has violated and against China a one-sided, pressurizing and unfair trade war has started. This war, which at a high level a political shape has, with legal legitimacy and international trade norms no kind of match has.
The United States tries through tariffs, sanctions, and blocking of Chinese technology, its rival from progress to stop. But this behavior not only against international laws is, but to the concept of economic justice also a serious threat brings. The countries of the world such a policy cannot tolerate in which a powerful country wants that the progress of a rival by force to stop, without considering international rules.
President Donald Trump, who the founder of this war is, through slogans, emotional speeches and one-sided decisions tries to show to the American people that supposedly the economic dominance of China is stopping. But between his actions and words always a deep contradiction exists. He neither in the values of a free market believes, nor in competition based on principles. Rather, this war he has turned into a tool for internal political campaigns, inciting emotions, and controlling public opinion.
In reality, this war against China is not just a political project, but by America an attempt is to hide its own decline. Because America can no longer tolerate that a new power like China in economy, innovation, technology, and international politics shoulder to shoulder with it stands. Therefore, instead of fair competition, it has chosen a policy full of blockages, restrictions, and prejudice.
China, on the contrary, through patience, prudence, and wisdom tries to present to the global market a trustworthy and principle-based cooperation. Through new markets, regional agreements, and big projects of the “Belt and Road”, China has proven that economic power should not be a tool of pressure, but a way of connection, understanding and mutual development. Despite America’s pressure, China not only has not backed down, but with increasing global support is moving forward.
America’s current policy, which from the spirit of political monopoly and economic selfishness originates, gives this message to the world that this country no longer the principle of partnership, trust, and mutual benefit recognizes. This thinking, if it continues, not only to America will bring economic loss, but global trust will also weaken.
In reality, this war which against justice, equality, and fair competition has started, a failed and regressive effort is. The world is tired now from such behavior where only the interest of one power is protected. The global economy is the shared legacy of all nations, and no country has the right that the rights of others underfoot to step.
If America wants that in the world an influential, respected and trustworthy economic partner remain, it should from the policy of force, economic discrimination and political pressure give up. Because the future is of partnership, justice and joint solutions – not of monopoly, sanctions and injustice.
