Their economies could face significant risks if they don't adopt a pragmatic approach to the dilemma.

A double-digit drop in German exports to China has triggered debate and concerns in Europe's biggest economy over whether it has become the victim of "mounting security and trade tensions between Beijing and Washington," the Financial Times reported on Wednesday.

While some in Australia may appear to see China's joining of the Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership (CPTPP) as an important bargaining chip at a time when China-Australia economic and trade relations face a critical period of thawing and returning to the right track, what they shouldn't miss is the bigger picture that China's participation in the partnership could be of great significance to the trade and investment treaty's future development.

With the Group of Seven (G7) countries at the Hiroshima summit aligned on a "de-risk, not decouple" approach toward China, some Western media outlets had claimed that Japan appears to be a beneficiary under this new development. However, the problem is what Japan is going to pay for "decoupling" from China.

While some European politicians appear to have hardened their China stance, European companies are busily ramping up investment in China. Such a profound contradiction is a reflection that it is not easy for Europe to “decouple” from the Chinese economy.

It is the concept of equality and mutual benefits that unites China and Central Asian countries, which is in stark contrast to the way the US ropes in allies and forms small circles in geopolitical games under the banner of cooperation.

The theory of “China's rise is about to peak” is nothing but a new variation of the tired “China collapse” cliché. It reflects American elites' lack of confidence in dealing with current economic challenges.

Despite the increasing positive signs for the thawing of China-Australia economic and trade relations, whether bilateral trade is really heading toward “a warm spring” is still up to whether Canberra can find a pragmatic point in balancing its economic and political imperatives.

With the global de-dollarization trend gaining momentum, the US trick of raising its debt limit to mitigate its default risk may now be very close to pushing the US treasuries to a dangerous tipping point.

Whether the Italian government will renew its BRI deal with China, which is set to expire early next year, has recently become a new target among Western media outlets. But China-Italy cooperation should not be undermined by such idle reports.

Fears of further bank collapses after the failures of Silicon Valley Bank and Signature Bank are seemingly haunting the market again as US regional banks at the heart of the liquidity crunch storm continue to struggle to stay afloat. It proves one thing that the Biden administration can hardly find quick fix to crisis incurred by long-time problems.

It is not China or any other country, but the US itself that sets off the inevitable trend of de-dollarization, thanks to its hegemonic behaviors such as unilateral sanctions. What people fight against is not US dollar, but US dollar hegemony.

Green cooperation is also an important lever for deepening China-Europe cooperation, especially under the current situation. Cooperation between the two sides will play a crucial role in enhancing mutual trust.

The US' attempt to force South Korean chipmakers to share the losses American companies suffered in the Chinese market is an apparent act of bullying full of arrogance.

India has accelerated its de-dollarization process in foreign trade. While Washington has been luring India into its containment campaign against China, India's abandoning the US dollar in certain trade is significant.

If India cannot improve the quality of its domestic workforce and create enough jobs, the country's so-called demographic dividend could become a demographic disaster.

The US' “decoupling” push against China has seen major semiconductor manufacturing regions roll out their own plans to support their domestic semiconductor industries, which plunges the global supply chain into greater volatility.

The Netherlands' General Intelligence and Security Service's assertion that China is a “threat” shows that the Dutch government is falling into the US' trap. The fact remains that the real threat to the Dutch economy is not China but the US.

With China's green manufacturing showing strong momentum, the Canton Fair has also seen business enthusiasm in green products, which could be a bright spot in future exports helping Chinese manufacturing defy the US' “decoupling” push.

US sanctions on Chinese firms for alleged involvement with Russia lack a legal basis and legitimacy in international law. China-Russia economic cooperation does not target any third party. It also does not tolerate any third party's interference or coercion.

If an investment project that has already been approved by the German government can be repeatedly blocked for political reasons, many would see that as proof indicating the investment atmosphere in the country is worrying.

Western eagerness to emphasize the US stance on Lula's visit to Huawei is, first of all, a disrespect to Brazil's will, reflecting a kind of anxiety over China-Brazil cooperation that is bound to extend to more scientific and technological areas.

Cutting off from Chinese manufacturing will never be a solution to boosting American manufacturing, but another pit politicians are digging for domestic manufacturing.

The focus on the new central bank governor in Japan highlights the severity and complexity of challenges facing the Japanese economy, especially at a time when Japan has been inclined to blindly follow Washington's “decoupling” push.

There have been growing signs that the Taiwan island's Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) authorities' attempt to use its semiconductor manufacturing sector as proof of allegiance to win Washington's support is gradually pushing the region's industrial chain to the brink.

There is every reason to worry that the investment climate in the UK is getting worse for Chinese companies. Particularly, Chinese companies that are being targeted by the US could be treated unfairly in the UK.

At a time when the global trade, energy, and manufacturing landscape is shifting, the further development of China-EU cooperation will inevitably require more flexibility and effort from both sides to overcome difficulties and challenges.

From every aspect, China's growth will be the bright spot for the world economy. For businesses around the world that seek win-win cooperation, don't miss out on China just because of geopolitical ramblings in the US.

Japan's attempt to extend its security alliance with the US to the economic and trade field represents a regression in terms of free trade. Japan needs to carefully weigh whether its economy can withstand the consequences of following the US' "decoupling" push from China.

There is no way for TikTok to play by the rules to address the US politicians' so-called concerns. This is because it is not national security issues, but TikTok's ability to challenge the supremacy of the US internet industry, that is what has really upset Washington.

The West labeling China's normal commercial operations in the key mineral supply chains as seeking control over critical resources actually reflects the malicious attempt to curb China's development from the beginning of the industrial chain.

If we shake off the so-called deflation fears, it is not hard to see that the current moderate inflation rate will allow the government more room to use various tools to boost consumption, with the view of better supporting China's economic recovery.

Washington has an inflation headache, and Beijing has the cure. In light of China's mild inflation this year, if there were improvements in economic & trade relations between China and the US, bilateral cooperation would have the potential to ease domestic inflation pressure in the US.

China's high-tech industries, especially semiconductors, are facing US containment and suppression, and the reorganization of China's Ministry of Science and Technology at this critical juncture may herald an acceleration of the breakthrough in technological innovation.

With the escalating US containment targeting China, the "decoupling" trend in trade between the two countries may be inevitable, but it is still upsetting to really see a substantial decline in bilateral trade, exacerbating negative sentiment over bilateral relations and the world economic recovery.

The Biden administration is nearing completion of new investment restrictions on Chinese tech. Such a politicized move will translate into a huge disadvantage for the US, at a time when China is poised to further open up its market.
