“China Is Not Afraid of Trade War With the US” – Xi Jinping Says to Trump
Xi Jinping, China’s leader, has firmly stated that his country is “not afraid,” addressing the ongoing trade war with the United States for the first time publicly.
Speaking with Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez in Beijing on Friday, Xi made it clear that China would not be intimidated by external pressures, as reported by state broadcaster CCTV.
The trade war, which began under President Donald Trump, has rattled global markets and raised concerns about a potential worldwide recession.
Xi emphasized, “There are no winners in a trade war. Pursuing conflict with the world will only lead to isolation.”
He added, “For over seven decades, China’s progress has been driven by hard work and self-reliance, not by handouts from others. We are not afraid of any unfair suppression.”
“China will stay confident, focused, and committed to managing its own affairs, no matter how the external situation evolves.”
These comments followed the announcement from The White House that the Trump administration has raised tariffs on Chinese goods to 145 percent, with the new rates taking effect immediately.
It was reported that former Nigerian president Goodluck Jonathan has allegedly purchased a presidential candidate form for the 2027 elections.
It can be noted that Jonathan served as Nigeria’s president from 2010 to 2015.
This information was revealed by Sani Useni, a special assistant who made the claim. Many reacted to the news, with some expressing interest in seeing Jonathan return to power after staying relatively quiet politically since his administration ended.
However, Jonathan has not yet addressed the public or officially shared any presidential ambition.
The Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) has reacted to the recent abduction incident in Oyo State.
It can be recalled that schools were attacked by armed men, with some teachers and students reportedly taken. Some people were also killed during the attack.
CAN cried out on behalf of the public, stating “It is intolerable, disgraceful and utterly unacceptable that Nigerian children can no longer sit safely in classrooms without the fear of being kidnapped by armed gangs.”
The organisation also stated that Nigerians are tired of constantly mourning and questioning when something will finally be done to stop the violence.
The Governor of Oyo State, Seyi Makinde, has revealed that seven teachers were abducted following a recent attack on a school in the state.
It was also shared that the number of students taken is still being investigated.
The governor further revealed that some people were killed during the attack and abduction.
He also added “With the pressure on the terrorists and the bandits in the North-West, they will keep moving southward.”
“When you have pressure in one place, we must be prepared on this side to either repel or neutralise any terrorists fleeing the pressure points.”
