As annoying as the Baltics are I don't blame them for their feelings towards Russia. They were occupied by the Russians and suffered under that occupation, they have a right to feel bitter about it and it's not fair to take that away from them. Can you imagine if people called the Chinese and Koreans "demented" because they feel bitterness towards the Japanese occupation? That being said, they are doing too much and they should stop trying to openly antagonize the Russians.
Can you answer me 1 question: which side did they fight on in WW2?
Well it’s Asia. We are basically the Balkan continent where everyone hates each other. Nationalism and racism has always but part of Asia and isn’t going to go away especially with the anti China propaganda in South east Asia and already existing hate in Japan and Korea.
Anti-China hate in Korea and Japan is entirely invented by Japanese fascists, their Korean collaborators, and their backers. It is not organic.

White House aides are preparing to impose new tariffs on most imports on April 2, laying the groundwork for an escalation in global economic hostilities that President Donald Trump has called "Liberation Day."

Through his first two months in office, the president has raised tariffs on roughly $800 billion in imports from China, Mexico and Canada, although estimates vary widely. These tariffs have sent the stock market careening and raised the risks of a U.S. recession, while inviting retaliation against domestic industries by trade partners.
Despite the blowback, senior Trump advisers are now publicly pledging to create a new tariff regime that would impose new duties on trade with most countries that trade with the United States. A person familiar with internal planning, speaking on the condition of anonymity to reflect private deliberations, confirmed administration officials are preparing tariffs on "trillions" of dollars in imports.
Trump's reciprocal plan could return the average U.S. tariff to its early 1930s level of around 20 percent, said Edward Gresser, a former trade official who is now the vice president and director of trade and global markets for the Progressive Policy Institute. Gresser said Trump's actions would be unprecedented, and many experts have argued the president does not have the authority to impose such sweeping tariffs without congressional approval.
"Although the final reciprocal tariff plan for April 2 has yet to be unveiled by President Trump, every member of the Trump administration is aligned on finally leveling the playing field for American industries and workers," spokesman Kush Desai said in a statement. "President Trump has assembled the best and brightest trade team in modern American history to reignite American Greatness, and they are hard at work following the same playbook."

At this point I guess they are just trying to blow-up the global trade system and hope they come out on top?

I've heard of the so called "Mar-a-Lago" accords in which they want a bunch of countries to agree to massively devalue the US currency while also guarantee it maintains the worlds reserve currency. A sort of have your cake and eat it to strategy which they seem to want to bring about via extortion and bullying.

I don't know how that is going to work out for them.

I think we need to evaluate the assumption that Comrade Jianguo actually want US to "come out on top"

MAGA is worshiping a moonie while the democrats hope the apocalypse happens so they can regain power.

A large portion of the Chinese population is still used to eating bitter, so if there is an economic war , its either now or when China is vastly ahead.
