Amid increasing tensions in US-China relations, China's Foreign Minister Wang Yi emphasized the need for the United States to resolve its differences with Beijing. The growing discord stems from trade tariffs and the policies enacted by the Trump administration, which have led to a trade war that has impacted the global economy. Wang's comments came during a press conference connected to China's annual political meeting known as the 'Two Sessions.'

Wang Yi highlighted that the US actions, which include setting tariff barriers and attempting to create decoupling and supply chain disruptions, appear counterproductive. He metaphorically described these actions as attempts to extinguish a fire by pouring gasoline on it, suggesting that such strategies ultimately harm the US itself. This reflects China's perspective that while the US seeks to impose restrictions, it could inadvertently escalate tensions rather than mitigate them.

The remarks also frame China's positioning as a reliable partner amid the unpredictability of US policies under Trump. As both the National People's Congress and the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference occur concurrently, the focus remains on China's strategy moving forward and its implications for both domestic and international relations. The ongoing conflict and China’s response may significantly influence future diplomatic and economic engagements between the two powers.
