Description

“Each side has essentially put trade embargoes on the other,” warns Wall Street Journal Chief China Correspondent Lingling Wei. With Xi Jinping doubling down on strategic industries and bloc-building abroad, Wei argues today’s rift goes beyond tariffs—it’s about ideology and long-term power.

She joins Jay Sapsford on The Call to break down the risks of escalation, China’s limited pain tolerance, and why the neither side should assume it holds all the leverage.
