Regardless of what are imported from the US, for those Chinese whose businesses and jobs depending on the imported goods and the importation, they all need time to change. You can think the truce as both sides buying time for the next round of battles. China imported goods worth more than 100 billion dollars from the US in 2024. Not all the importers deserve the punishment. There are legitimate reasons for some to keep doing business with the Americans.

Even for those who have ignored the warnings, yes you can say whatever about them, but if the number is too great to be neglected, the government still has to take their welfare in the calculations.

I think one mistake you are making is that you are assuming the $400 billion of exports to the US would somehow go to zero. In reality, the factories could export these products to other countries at a slightly reduced price. It may no longer be $400 billion of exports, but become $380 billion of exports. Recent trade data shows this is already ongoing. I recently talked to a relative that's in the import export business. Last year, his company exported about Y600M worth of goods to the US. I asked him how much would those goods sell for if sold to non-US buyers, and he replied about Y585M. That's a drop of only 2.5%.

Goods get sold to the US when US buyers are willing to pay the most. In the absence of buyers, the goods would simply be sold to the next highest bidder.

The Indian fallout from the rafale downing continues

In Chinese it's called 恼羞成怒, embarrassment leading to anger

They are trying to muddy the waters by spamming articles about India's "success". Claiming they shot down multiple Pakistani jets, and claiming Chinese AD failed to protect Pakistani airbases. The entire western internet reeks of indian nationalists these couple days

India's dreams of regional domination of their rivals have been shattered, even after so many billions spent importing the best of the west

Hmm what's more embarrassing. Getting some potholes in airbases that be fixed in like a day. Or losing 6 jets that average to 100-200 million each that will take a long time to replace. We are still confirming the s400 radar damage but if true that would be even more embarrassing than pk airbases. After all the s400 is supposed to have the good rep not hq9. Not to mention the hq9 shooting down brahmos missiles.

There's still a lot more embarrassing moments for India that are pending confirmation.

Vietnam has bloody history with both USA and China, USA killed more Vietnamese than China , at least China ever helped Vietnam .
But why VN is pro US than China? Does white superiority complex involve here ?
It's probably more of Narcissism of small differences. It's why the Irish hate the British, Jews hate Muslims and Koreans hate Japanese and vice versa.
