Trump's Trade War: An Unintended Victory for China?

Did Trump's Protectionism Boost China? A new DW Español video examines how Donald Trump's protectionist trade policies may have inadvertently strengthened China's global influence. The video highlights China's economic growth, its control over strategic resources, and its expansion of global influence through initiatives like the Belt and Road. Experts interviewed in the video emphasize China's leadership in key technologies and its role as a proponent of free trade in contrast to the US's protectionist stance. The video concludes with a discussion of the implications for global trade and the emerging multipolar world order. "The uncertainty generated by Trump's unpredictable decisions is pushing many countries to be cautious in their trade with Washington," explains one expert. The analysis presented in the video offers valuable insights into the complex interplay between US policy, China's rise, and the shifting global economic landscape.
