Sino-U.S. Trade War

The Sino-U.S. trade war was a conflict between China and the United States starting around 2018, involving the imposition of tariffs and trade restrictions. Both countries aimed to protect their industries, address concerns over intellectual property theft, and reduce trade imbalances. Tariffs made imported goods more expensive, affecting global supply chains and causing economic uncertainty. The trade war led to retaliatory measures, disrupted markets, and prompted negotiations to reach new trade agreements. It reflects broader tensions over economic influence, technology, and geopolitical power between the two nations.
