This is becoming madness and childish

US and China should simply close their boarders to each other and allow us enjoy our peace

China exports more to the US and will ultimately lose this war, the ideal thing is to get to the negotiation table and drop all these ego.

As big as China's economy has grown, it can easily be sabotaged by the US. US can easily blackmail African countries etc to stop buying from China

All Obama needed to sabotage Nigeria's fast growing economy was to support Bubu in 2015, now we are a shadow of ourselves
The US would be starved of products, investors capital would be tied down and the little in circulation would become unreachable to majority of Americans.

While China wouldn't hesitate to respond, they are quietly making deals with other countries and gradually replacing the US.

China still holds the ace, once they decide to close their US bond (debts owed to them by the US), everywhere go scatter.

I'm sure wise countries with wise leaders are moving their country's assets away from the USD as I type.

You wrong, Only Dollars to any African country and Yen to African country will always make Africans rush to China any day any time, China produces cheaper and also standard goods compared to the US

Laughing. You're only looking at the sales that China will lose but you didn't consider negative impacts on the American consumers. Meanwhile, China can also expand their markets in other countries. Besides, they're communist/socialist country, they don't really care much

It is meaningless at this point.

Technically, a trading embargo has been fixed between both nations.

China stated last week that they will no longer respond. They will just ignore him.

The truth is America's influence and power has waned, and the growth momentum is in China's favour.

However, any of both countries can still cripple another. A very complicated battle.

Trump lacks any shred of human decency, humility or caring. He is morally bankrupt, breathtakingly dishonest, lethally incompetent, and stunningly ignorant of virtually anything related to governing, history, geography, human events or world affairs
Re: US Raises Tariffs On China To 245% As Trade War Escalates by Berankis:
If these confrontations can happen between 2 well-to-do countries like US and China. What is the fate of Nigeria who rely on other countries for 80% of it's consumption? It is high time we started pushing for self-sustenance too and started to prepare for days like these that may come in future.
The US still feels it's all about them and believe China is far lesser than them but China has infact grown so much in recent times. It will be a no-winner, no-vanquished fight. China saw it coming and started preparing ahead for it and today we are here.

"How can we benefit from these two elephants fighting each other?"

This is the question Nigeria should be asking right now and positioning to exploit this situation to the fullest.



Mehn, I miss the sound economic teams of OBJ and GEJ.

Trump doesn't just realize how vulnerable he is at this moment. All China needs to unseat Trump from office is to hammer US with 345% i.e 100% more of whatever Trump imposes. It would get to a point where Americans will just rise and remove Trump.

Lol. You think it's that easy. Most African countries are dealing more with China than USA these days. Also, USA imports more from China than China does to USA. Go and verify.

China has a lot to lose because they have been restricting USA access to their economy. Chinkos are usually selfish. That's the fact.
