New Delhi: Have you thought about why Donald Trump plays the character of a paradoxical world leader globally? How perfectly does he play the role of a good and bad cop simultaneously?

See, he knows what he is doing? He knew that if he abruptly put countries under pressure by levying heavy taxes, he could crack a deal with them by giving them an ultimatum of 90 days.

He had pulled off a Trade War in his previous term too, but his advisers told him that it could be internecine if he continued to do so. But now, U.S. President Donald Trump is in no rush to end the tariffs. He and his team are in talks with most of the countries, including China.

Trump's Tariff Diplomacy

Trump 2.0 is much more confident, unencumbered by inhibitions, that in the next few weeks, the USA can materialize a deal—even with China. The circumstances are different now, reports Dynamite News correspondent.

After the U.S. President cracked the tariff whip, other Asian giants like Japan, South Korea, and India are negotiating with the U.S.

However, the Chinese President, now on a three-nation tour in Southeast Asia, is looking for new trade opportunities. He, in fact, even took a veiled jibe at the U.S. President and his tariffs.

Can there actually be an end to the U.S.-China tariff war that we are seeing?

Cracking a Deal Could Be Arduous

The U.S. President is a pompous man. Imposing a 245% tariff on China has prompted Beijing to negotiate with the U.S. for a deal.

China, after hitting the U.S. back with a tariff of 125%, has urged Washington to put a stop to the plan to charge port fees on China-built ships at U.S. ports.

Chinese President Xi Jinping has arrived in Cambodia as part of his impactful three-nation tour of Southeast Asia. Xi’s visit to Cambodia is being seen as a charm offensive in Southeast Asia, where he also stopped by Vietnam and Malaysia.

In the wake of the U.S. tariffs that hit the region hard, Beijing is carrying on a two-pronged approach. Since Trump’s tariff war hit it hard, on the one hand, China is exploring new opportunities in other countries, and on the other, it is reaching out to Washington for trade talks.
