Xi Jinping's GRAND Welcome in Malaysia: China Destroys Trump's Tariff War With ASEAN Treaties

Chinese President Xi Jinping’s visit to Malaysia marks a pivotal moment in Beijing’s bid to outmaneuver the U.S. in Southeast Asia. With Trump-era tariffs souring Washington's trade ties, Xi aims to convince Malaysia and ASEAN that China is the region’s best long-term partner. Touting deepened strategic ties, tech cooperation, and economic integration, Xi’s charm offensive leans into BRICS, RCEP, and de-dollarization plans. As Malaysia looks East, Beijing is pushing hard to anchor a new global order that trades in renminbi—and trades away American dominance. #XiInMalaysia #ChinaTrade #TrumpTariffs #ASEAN #MalaysiaChinaTies #RCEP #BRICS #Geopolitics #TradeWar #DeDollarization #XiJinpingVisit #ChinaPlusOne #BilateralTies #AsiaPacific #USChinaTensions #GlobalTrade #MalaysiaDiplomacy #ChinaStrategy #TrumpVsXi #RenminbiTrade Also Read Trump Slaps 145% Tariffs On China As Trade War Deepens :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-slaps-145-tariffs-on-china-as-trade-war-deepens-4120591.html?ref=DMDesc Trump Praises Chinese Counterpart Xi Jinping Amid US-China Tariff Standoff, Calls Him 'Very Smart Man' :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-praises-chinese-counterpart-xi-jinping-amid-us-china-tariff-standoff-calls-him-very-smart-ma-4120019.html?ref=DMDesc China, US On Collision Course As Trade Spat Fuels Geopolitical Rift; Beijing Vows To ‘Fight To The End’ :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/china-us-on-collision-course-as-trade-spat-fuels-geopolitical-rift-beijing-vows-to-fight-to-the-e-4117775.html?ref=DMDesc

Trump Envoy’s BIG ANNOUNCEMENT Ahead of Trump-Putin Call | Russia-Ukraine Talks | Russia – U.S

Trump’s special envoy Steve Witkoff expressed optimism ahead of the former president’s phone call with Vladimir Putin, calling it a potential “success” that could help end the Ukraine conflict. This follows the first direct Russia-Ukraine talks in three years, which saw a prisoner exchange and renewed ceasefire discussions. Witkoff said Trump aims for a stable truce and final peace deal, warning that if diplomacy stalls, “crushing sanctions” await Moscow. Putin, however, insists talks must address NATO concerns and that Ukraine must halt mobilization and weapons inflow to ensure a lasting ceasefire. #Trump #Putin #RussiaUkraineWar #PeaceTalks #UkraineCrisis #Ceasefire #TrumpPutinCall #USPolitics #Geopolitics #Russia #Ukraine #NATO #Moscow #Zelensky #SteveWitkoff #Sanctions #CeasefireDeal #WorldNews #Diplomacy #ConflictResolution
