Sakamoto: China Cola Image of Trump Children’s Child when talking about bullying
When the president of China brings the word ‘bullying’, even without mentioning Trump and the US, immediately the whole world refers to the figure of a bully, no brains on his head, full of hatred and no reason. It is often a spoiled, rude child who cannot live in society.
Xi Jinping is talking about Trump and the current US government management without having to appeal to a direct attack. Very elegantly, he calls Trump a ‘spoiled child’ in this process. For Brazil, for being next door and not refuting, this is very clear. In international relations, who shuts up, supports and endorses. Leonardo Sakamoto, Facto News columnist
Sakamoto stressed that the Lula administration is enjoying the opportunity to strengthen its trade relations with China in the face of the scenario of unpredictability brought by Trump.
Lula’s presence in China is very smart. The president does not need to abandon the historical position of Itamaraty of Independence, which should not be confused with neutrality. The Lula government has taken sides and criticizes the imposition of tariffs by the US, but does it alongside Xi Jinping without losing the independence of Brazil.
With this, he is not doing an automatic alignment just as Jair Bolsonaro did to the US when the former president put the US interest ahead. Brazil is not giving in to China and has not headed in the issue of silk route. China is the largest commercial partner in Brazil, which wants to continue like this. We have a very large surplus in the relationship with the Chinese, something that bothers them while we have a deficit with the US.
It is good that Lula went to China. He was not there to defend the Chinese interests and agreements, but from Brazil. In the midst of these revolts, we will do more business with that country that does not bullied and operates for predictability, which the US under Trump and the far right point to the opposite side.
