The Price of Protectionism
The article provides an in-depth analysis of the 2025 US-China trade war, where both nations have reignited tariff battles targeting critical sectors like semiconductors, EV batteries, agriculture, and luxury goods. It explains how this renewed conflict is disrupting global supply chains, pushing major companies to shift manufacturing to countries like India, Vietnam, Mexico, and Thailand. The article also highlights China’s growing trade alliances with Africa and Latin America, the expansion of regional trade blocs like RCEP and IPEF, and the increasing push towards de-dollarization through yuan-based trade settlements and BRICS-led payment systems.

The article emphasizes that sustainable global growth now depends on renewed multilateral cooperation, transparent trade practices, and a strategic shift from zero-sum competition to mutual interdependence.
