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.

Xi Jinping Lands in Hanoi as US Tariff Escalates—China & Vietnam Forge 40-Deal Pact to Counter Trump

As the U.S. slaps 145% tariffs on Chinese goods, President Xi Jinping touches down in Hanoi — and the world takes notice. In a high-stakes diplomatic mission, Xi kicks off his Southeast Asia tour by strengthening economic and strategic ties with Vietnam. With 40 potential deals on the table — from supply chains and rail infrastructure to artificial intelligence and aviation — China and Vietnam are signaling a major shift in regional dynamics. Meanwhile, Vietnam walks a delicate line: negotiating tariff relief from Washington while tightening controls on Chinese goods to avoid rule-of-origin fraud. Is Vietnam aligning with Beijing, or playing both sides in a new global power game? This video unpacks the trade tensions, diplomatic signals, and what Xi's visit could mean for the balance of power in Asia — and beyond. #XiJinping #ChinaVietnam #TradeTensions #USChinaTradeWar #SoutheastAsia #Tariffs #Geopolitics #GlobalTrade #BeltAndRoad #COMAC #VietnamEconomy #RailDiplomacy #MadeInVietnam #XiInHanoi #ChinaNews

Modi Meets Bangladesh's Yunus in Bangkok Amid Diplomatic Strains and Regional Security Concerns

Prime Minister Narendra Modi met Bangladesh's Chief Adviser Muhammad Yunus in Bangkok during the BIMSTEC Summit, amid strained ties between the nations. The meeting follows Yunus’s controversial remarks on India’s Northeast, and India’s concerns over attacks on minorities in Bangladesh. Tensions have also risen due to Sheikh Hasina's asylum in India and growing Bangladesh-Pakistan military ties. Though Dhaka requested prior bilateral talks, Modi initially declined. This meeting is the first since Hasina’s ouster and may indicate cautious diplomatic re-engagement. #ModiYunusMeet #BangladeshIndiaTies #BIMSTEC2025 #DiplomaticTensions #IndiaBangladesh #ModiInBangkok #GeopoliticsAsia #SouthAsiaSummit #BIMSTECDialogue #SheikhHasina #MinorityRights #BangladeshPolitics #IndiaForeignPolicy #YunusRemarks #ModiDiplomacy #AsiaSummits #BangladeshAsylumIssue #PakistanISI #ModiBangladeshTalks #NortheastIndia ~ED.103~HT.336~GR.124~

How China Is Outsmarting Trump’s 145% Tariffs Using Vietnam | Tariff War Escalates [Video]

How China Is Outsmarting Trump’s 145% Tariffs Using Vietnam | Tariff War Escalates

As Donald Trump hikes tariffs on Chinese goods to an unprecedented 145%, China appears to be outmaneuvering Washington through clever supply chain rerouting. Chinese exports are increasingly flowing through countries like Vietnam, Malaysia, and Indonesia to dodge U.S. tariffs — raising concerns about global trade transparency. Meanwhile, Vietnam records $18.5 billion in net FDI, some of which may be due to this strategic redirection. Trump has vowed more tariff hikes, while Beijing threatens to retaliate, placing ASEAN economies at risk and pushing the global trade system into chaos. #TariffWar #TrumpChina #145PercentTariff #ChinaVietnam #TradeEvasion #USImports #FDIVietnam #GlobalTrade #WTO #TradeTensions #TrumpTariffs #ASEANSupplyChain #China
