Opinion | Economic and geopolitical consequences of U.S. tariffs on China The United States' decision to impose sweeping tariffs on Chinese imports in 2025 marks a fundamental shift in global economic relations, one that carries profound implications for both nations and the international trading system. This protectionist turn, while designed to strengthen domestic industries, risks triggering a cascade of economic and geopolitical consequences that may ultimately undermine its intended benefits.

Opinion | The U.S. tariff playbook: Asymmetric power, Trump's gamble, and risks of economic warfare The United States holds a commanding position in global trade, its status as the world's largest consumer market granting it unmatched coercive power. This immense influence equips the U.S. to shape trade through tariffs—a tool Donald Trump's administration embraced eagerly to push an "America First" agenda. Yet, even with this formidable leverage, Trump's tariff strategy rests on a gamble, potentially overplaying short-term gains while underestimating the deeper costs ahead.

Opinion | US imperialism in 2025: A fading empire's reckless push In 2025, U.S. imperialism stands exposed as a relentless drive to dominate a world slipping from its grasp. No longer veiled by ideals of "democracy" or "human rights," American power projection—spanning Ukraine's battlefields, Asia's contested waters, and even Greenland's icy frontier—reveals a desperate bid to suppress a rising multipolar order. This is not a new playbook but an escalation of a long-standing pattern, intensified by a hegemon facing decline.

Opinion | China's trade triumph: Resilience against US choke point threats China’s Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) counters U.S. dominance over key trade choke points like the Strait of Malacca and South China Sea. By building alternative routes and boosting self-sufficiency, China reduces vulnerability to U.S. interference. Weakening U.S. alliances and economic tariffs further solidify China’s global ascent.
