Why is China shocked by Trump's cabinet? Know the reason for the Dragon's trouble.
China's advisors have warned the Beijing government that the most popular faces in Donald Trump's team in his new term, including billionaire Elon Musk and Indian-origin businessman Vivek Ramaswamy, are going to be the biggest threat to China. So are the policies, strategies, and plans of America's next President Donald Trump going to be the biggest threat to China?
There could be more trouble than before
Experts believe that China will have to face more problems than before during Trump's tenure. It is worth noting that this warning to the Jinping government has been given by a policy advisor of the Chinese government. China's policy advisor Zheng Yongnian has expressed this apprehension for China regarding Trump's new team. According to Zheng Yongnian, the biggest threat to China during Trump's second term will be the team of Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswami.
China's policy advisor also believes that a more efficient American political system will put enormous pressure on China. The biggest pressure on China may come from political changes within the US. This pressure will not be limited to China alone, but will also extend to other countries, especially Europe. In such a situation, China should find countermeasures against the Trump cabinet.
'Preparations to abolish many rules and reduce the number of employees'
Let us tell you that Trump has nominated Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswami to lead a new government department DOGE, i.e. Department of Government Efficiency. These two members joining the Trump cabinet have already planned to abolish many rules and reduce the number of government employees.
Donald Trump will take over the reins of America for his second term on January 20. That is, less than one and a half months are left for Trump-2.0 to begin in America. In such a situation, the Chinese government has already started preparations on many fronts to deal with the challenges posed by Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswami, who will join Trump's new cabinet.
Suspected of damaging bilateral relations
Chinese advisors and strategists believe that Trump can harm bilateral relations with China by imposing various taxes. However, Trump is a businessman, so he would not want any direct confrontation with China.
Experts believe that after Trump's arrival in America, tensions around the South China Sea and the Taiwan Strait will continue to rise. Apart from this fear, China is also afraid that Trump's new team can also create many economic problems for Beijing.
Donald Trump's return to America has once again raised the fear of a trade war with China. Trump had made statements that increased China's tension during the US presidential election itself. One of the promises Trump made to win the election was to impose a heavy import duty of up to 60 percent on Chinese products. Even during his first term, Trump had taken many tough decisions against China.
The import duty was increased in the last term.
In the last term, the Trump government took strict action on Chinese goods and increased the import duty by 25 percent. When Trump increased the import duty for the first time, it proved to be very troublesome for China. After 4 years of Trump's last term, China's economic condition has become more fragile. After Trump, the Biden government also did not reduce the pressure on China. The Biden administration continued the tough measures against China and in some cases even increased its scope.
Experts believe that whatever Trump had said about the new tariff on Chinese products, this time he will implement his words against Beijing in a more strict manner. China's troubles will increase further due to members like Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy joining Trump's team. The reason behind this is that in recent times, Elon Musk's company has suffered a major setback due to China, after which Elon Musk will definitely compensate for the loss caused by China.
Where is the problem stuck?
Actually, recently Chinese President Jinping visited Brazil. During this time, Brazil and the Chinese company signed an agreement. Brazil had signed an agreement with China's Space Cell regarding satellite internet service. Space Cell is the biggest rival of Elon Musk's company Starlink. In such a situation, this agreement between Brazil and China was considered a big loss for Elon Musk's company.
