The usa pissed off China so much they basically said “fuck all yall” 😭
That‘s their default, though. It’s not the first time they‘re acting up as an unreliable business partner. I mean they bought all those rare earth mines across the globe for a reason and it‘s not to just stick it to the USA. They‘re both bullies.
They got what everyone wants, and they want to make sure everyone remembers that. No doubt prices will raise due to interrupted supply. China will probably benefit when they resume trade with selected countries
No matter how you spin it, China comes out on top. They get to sit back while their main adversaries simply throw away every advantage they’ve built up over the last five decades or so. The only winning move is not to play…
The USA used to succeed due to all the brightest young minds wanting to immigrate and study in US universities.
Can’t really see anyone wanting to live in China, even just for study or work.
