US President Donald Trump stated that his Chinese counterpart, Xi Jinping, understands the 'consequences' that will follow. This statement comes amid the ongoing trade dispute between the two nations. Trump hinted at possible economic sanctions or other pressure measures should Beijing continue its actions, which, in Washington's view, harm American interests. China, in turn, rejects these accusations, insisting on the principles of mutual respect and equality. Both sides have yet to reach an agreement, and tension in their relations continues to mount.
