US seeks dialogue with China to ease inflation pressure, ‘lifting additional tariffs is not a gift for bargaining’
The US will change and soften its attitude and tone toward China when it really needs help, and China fully realizes that it is never realistic to expect Washington to keep promises, and only strength and capabilities are useful when dealing with the US, experts noted.
Considering the US has failed to honor its commitments in practice since the last video call in March between the Chinese and US top leaders, China holds no illusion on reaching a reliable agreement with the US to end all tensions. It will keep alert and ready to retaliate if the US makes new trouble in other areas even if it decides to correct some of its mistakes, experts said, as the US is expected to take more action to contain or confront China at the upcoming G7 and NATO summits, as well as holding military and security talks with the Taiwan authorities.
Clearly, the US has violated all of these promises in practice, and it should not expect China to easily believe its promises without any concrete action. China should keep urging and pushing the US to correct the additional mistakes it made, especially when it needs help from China, experts noted.
