Editor's Note The United States, in the name of "adjusting the tariffs of trading partners", is actually practicing "indiscriminate trade bullying". Its unilateral tariff increase policy has evolved into a disorderly impact on the global industrial chain - many countries have chosen to compromise under pressure, trying to make concessions in short-term interests in exchange for easing trade disputes, and falling into a vicious cycle of "using land to serve Qin".
