Part 5/11:
The diplomatic rhetoric from China has intensified. The Chinese Foreign Ministry's spokesperson warned that if the U.S. seeks conflict—be it through trade, tariffs, or any other means—China is ready to “fight to the end.” This aggressive stance likely reflects the broader frustrations China feels regarding U.S. unilateralism.
In a more provocative move, China published a white paper on its control over fentanyl-related substances, suggesting that the root cause of the fentanyl crisis lies within the U.S. This document appears to be part of a strategy to shift blame towards the United States, asserting that China’s efforts to mitigate the crisis are met with hostility in return.
