Trump Accuses China of Violating Trade Deal in Truth Social Post

Trump Revives Trade Tensions with Bold Accusation

In a Truth Social post on Friday, US President Donald Trump reignited concerns over global trade tensions by declaring that China has "totally violated" its agreement with the United States.

Stabilization Followed by Violation

Trump stated that during his previous term, he imposed "very high tariffs" that forced China to reassess its trade behavior and even close some of its factories. He claimed that his swift trade deal helped China avoid worsening economic conditions, allowing both nations to stabilize economically.

“Everyone was happy! That’s the good news,” Trump wrote.

However, he added that China has since reneged on the agreement, potentially setting the stage for renewed trade friction between the two economic giants.

Implications for Markets and Trade Policy

These statements could stir fresh uncertainty in global markets, especially as tariff-related disputes and geopolitical pressures continue to impact investor sentiment. Trump’s reassertion of his tough-on-China stance may also influence expectations around trade policies should he secure another term in office.
