After a shocking press conference over the discussion of The Directive to Strengthen International Trade between China and the U.S. cabinets, the deal fell through. This deal was supposed to accomplish many things, including increasing imports from the U.S. by twenty-five percent, replacing twenty-five percent of oil exchange initially from Russia, and handing over that trade to the U.S. The deal was also going to lift the embargo the U.S. had placed on semiconductors.
The U.S. stated, “We can not entertain a deal with China if they are also going to continue to entertain an oil deal or anything of the like with Russia.” After learning of the China and Russia conversations, the U.S. could no longer be apart. Then the cabinet stated, “That is ultimately what we have come to the table to present, and we have been as upfront as possible, and we do not want to negotiate with people we do not trust.”
China had a comment about this remark and ultimately stated, “I believe it is disgraceful for a diplomatic country such as the U.S. to pull out of a deal that the People’s Republic of China has already fulfilled their part of”.
At the end of the conference, no consensus was made. The Cabinet of the U.S. walked out to their national anthem the star-spangled banner, and the Cabinet of China soon followed. After no deal/signing as of yesterday, we wonder if China and the U.S. will try again and make a deal.
