US Reciprocal Tariffs, Beijing’s Wolf Warrior Rhetoric, and China’s Two Sessions

In this week’s episode of China Insider, Miles Yu examines the latest round of reciprocal U.S. tariffs on imported goods from China, Mexico, and Canada, and why China remains the focus of U.S. trade policy. Next, Miles responds to comments from China’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs regarding China’s readiness for any conflict, trade or otherwise. Lastly, Miles peels back the curtain on the Two Sessions congress held last week in Beijing, and the impact of China’s current economic challenges on the CCP’s domestic legitimacy.
