The Group's Summit ended in the shadow of the Sino -US trade war. It is different from the atmosphere and results of the informal meeting of the previous Asia -Pacific Economic Cooperation Organization. This summit has not been stimulated by Sino -US trade differences.Consensus not only acknowledges the importance of free trade to promoting global economic growth, but also calls on the increasingly marginal world trade organizations.At the same time, the sidelines of the Sino -US leaders who have attracted the attention of public opinion have also reached a 90 -day ceasefire agreement to resolve the conflict between the two parties to fight for breathing.
There are all signs of the meeting that China and the United States may have obtained some compromise in this leader meeting, and the results are in line with expectations.The analysis believes that both sides need to explain to the domestic people; more importantly, the cost of upgrading the trade war is both defeated.The United States' dissatisfaction with China is mainly concentrated in China to support state -owned enterprises to monopolize the domestic market and expand overseas markets, forced foreign capital transfer techniques to exchange for business property rights in China, disrespect and protect foreign businessmen, as well as online attacks and network attacks andStealing American intellectual property rights.
According to reports, China is preparing to purchase a large number of agricultural products, industrial products and energy sources in the United States to reduce the trade surplus of the United States in exchange for the United States to temporarily increase tariffs on Chinese imported products.Dissatisfaction with behavior.The balance of trade in China is an important policy of US President Trump. In terms of expansion, he believes that the trade surplus of the United States in any country is the result of cheapness, so it repeatedly emphasizes fair trade.However, the strong means he adopted was criticized by the international community as protectionism and unilateralism.
However, in the eyes of Trump, China's trade measures are protective behaviors.This is also the embarrassment of why China opposed to the communiqué of the Asia -Pacific Economic Cooperation Summit, which led to the first time that the summit was the first time since 1993.The Group of 20 may have learned lessons, avoided controversial expressions in the bulletin, and only brought it with the current trade issue.In contrast to the addition of additional 90 days in order to avoid the upgrading of the trade war, the announcement of the announcement of the importance of free trade in promoting the world economy, and calling on the reform of the WTO, which is probably a more concerned development.
Whether it is historical and practical experience or the economic theory formed from it, it shows that free trade does help improve the total output value, thereby improving the standard of living of all mankind.Observed from the current world economic pattern, all developed countries and emerging economies are major trading countries.Most of the economically backward countries have not entered the economic and trade order of globalization.Therefore, the trade war must not only avoid, but also further improve the international free trade system and benefit more countries and population.
However, international reality is that trade is not isolated, but also involves the fairness of trade dividend distribution, including the side effects of trade between countries, capital and workers, as well as environmental destruction and cross -border flow of the population.
In addition, the United States' dissatisfaction with China, such as intellectual property rights, and non -marketing support for state -owned enterprises, are also unfair competition phenomena that must be faced.Like the law of any things, once the side effects are too large, it will inevitably endanger things itself.International Free Trade is currently at a similar crossroads, and countries need to work together to solve the problem.
Based on the affirmation of free trade by the summit, the basic principles of returning to free trade, and the reform of the WTO to implement these principles, it is naturally what it deserves.For a period of time, for the sake of their narrow interests, countries participating in the globalization process were unwilling to make concessions in global trade negotiations, which repeatedly frustrated the WTO's efforts.In addition to the ashamed of various countries, the construction of a regional trade agreement has been replaced, which has accelerated the fate of the marginalization of the WTO.The bulletin has repeatedly referred to the reform of the WTO for a long time, so it is positive and positive.
This development has fulfilled the meaning of crisis MDASH; mdash; the threat of the trade war forced the innovation of the World Trade Organization.However, after all, this is just a small step. The practice of self -protection through the regional trade agreement is still continuing, and the Sino -US trade war is far from over.If the two sides still cannot find a compromise plan 90 days later, the world economy will still fall into the sea of trade war.
Thousands of miles began in the foot. In any case, as long as all major trading powers have willing to compete peacefully, fair trade, face up and deal with the side effects of trade, the process of globalization, and the prospects are still hopeful.
