Cancellation Of The Levy Is A Necessary Condition For Reaching An Agreement.

Properly resolving the core concerns of both sides is the prerequisite for reaching an agreement.

For China, the ultimate elimination of all tariffs is a core concern that has never changed and will not change. Even if it is a phased agreement, this core concern should also be reflected.

In the background message, we have no doubt about China's position and principles, but we have different views on whether we can achieve our goals.

Next, let's talk about this topic.

First of all, it is China's consistent position to fight a trade war without a winner.

This recurrent topic is necessary to emphasize again.

Since the US side launched a trade war last year, China's view of trade war is not about winning or losing, but rather, "no win in trade wars."

What's the difference?

The difference lies in the way of looking at the pattern of interests.

Should we look at the interests of China and the United States, and between China and the United States?

If you can't see or do not want to see the close ties between them, you will naturally care about the so-called winning or losing.

On the contrary, it is easy to come to the conclusion that there is no winner in trade wars.

We should persist in opening up for development and deepen exchanges and cooperation.

Stick to "pull hands" instead of "loosing hands" and insist on "breaking up walls" instead of "building walls" and firmly oppose protectionism and unilateralism.

Secondly, the abolition of the already imposed tariffs is China's core concern.

The discerning eye can see that China's core concern is the abolition of the already imposed tariffs.

Tariff is the starting point of Sino US trade war. Abolition of the added tariffs is a necessary condition for reaching an agreement.

Over the past year, the first meeting between Argentina and the US dollar has been made to the public statements of the Chinese leaders, and then to the routine news release of the Ministry of Commerce of China.

In the past consultations, there will be no change in this position.

The abolition of the already imposed tariffs is China's core concern.

This concern has always been reflected in the whole process of consultations, phased agreements, final agreements, and China's core concerns.

Any misjudgement on this issue may lead to repeated negotiations.

Finally, properly resolving the core concerns, the two sides will get closer to the agreement.

On March 23, 2018, the Chinese Ministry of Commerce issued a statement on the decision of the US 301 investigation, making a very clear statement.

"China does not want to engage in trade wars, but we must not be afraid of trade wars. We are confident and capable of dealing with any challenges."

Over the past year, practice has shown that Chinese dialects are concise and comprehensive.

As long as the US side impose tariffs, the Chinese side will certainly oppose it. The United States threatens to impose tariffs, while the Chinese side does not eat it at all, nor does it regard the threat of tariffs as a condition for consultation.

It is to be seen that "there is no winner in trade wars", and that it is not possible to impose any tariffs on China.

In fact, with the passage of time, China's position is being understood and accepted by more and more people.

Only when China and the United States resolve the core concerns properly will they get closer to the agreement.

What kind of actions will be taken will naturally yield what kind of results.
