The US China trade war, which escalated under the Trump administration, involves tariffs and trade restrictions between the world’s two largest economies. Initiated to curb China’s trade practices and protect American industries, it has led to billions in losses, market disruptions, and global supply chain shifts. Both countries have imposed tariffs on hundreds of billions in goods, affecting industries from agriculture to tech. While talks have eased tensions, ongoing disputes over technology, IP rights, and geopolitical influence continue. The trade war not only impacts bilateral relations but also affects global markets, forcing countries to reevaluate their economic dependencies.
