In a very sharp attack on the US president, Donald Trumpthe China He posted a video on X (formerly Twitter), calling on the international community to resist the “bully” of the US and saying “China will not kneel”.
“Bulning to a bully is like drinking poison to thirst, just aggravate the crisis,” Donald Trump’s video released by China earlier today (29.04.2025).
The video narrative is in English and subtitles in Chinese.
“History has shown that compromise does not guarantee you mercy, kneeling causes more intimidation. China will not kneel. “
The video narrates a ‘History Lesson’ For what China considers as US financial aggression by references to companies such as Toshiba and the Alstomwhich, according to the narrative, the US forced into split, financial crisis and bankruptcy, leading the Japanese economy to ‘Decades of anemic development’.
Contrarying this picture, China appears as a one ‘Paradise of Free Trade’ with which other countries can invest and cooperate safely.
“China will remain firm, no matter how loud the wind blows,” the video said. “Someone has to move forward, holding the torch, to break up the fog and brighten the way.”
The video is a message to the Trump government after the historical escalation of the trade war, as well as a call for action towards other countries. China in the video called on every country to “stand up” to “break the walls of hegemony”.
“We know that by defending ourselves, we keep the prospect of cooperation alive,” the video says. “China will not retreat to hear the voices of the weak, to stop bullying and not to disappear from the world.”
The central message of the video: America is unreliable.
In the video, China calls the US “paper tiger”noting that US imports and exports are less than 1/5 fifth of world trade and that America “does not represent the whole world”.
«When the rest of the world stands together united, the US will be just a small, isolated boat »concludes the video.
The video It does not directly refer to the 145% duties imposed by the Trump government on Chinese imports – nor on the 125% reciprocal duties that China has imposed on US products. However, his publication on social media coincides with a seemingly mood of China to bend the tension on the part of the Trump government.

The US president recently said he is expecting to reduce duties on Chinese products, while the finance minister, Scott Bessed He described the overly high duties as “unsustainable”. However, Trump stressed that China would have to submit a strong proposal to make progress, and while reporting that the two countries are in constant communication, Beijing continues to deny that there are active negotiations.
Meanwhile, Washington’s trade talks are in full swing with many other countries. THE Bessed said he is in active negotiations with 17 countries during the 90 -day “freezing” of excessively high ‘Payrolls’which in some cases reach 50% in dozens of countries.
China calls on the rest of the states to remain steady and not ally with the US against it.
