In this video, Victor Gao delivers a sharp critique of the United States' trade policy under Donald Trump, positioning China as both a defender of free trade and a nation unwilling to be intimidated. He paints the trade war as a reckless act of economic hostility, arguing that China’s response is grounded not in aggression, but in a firm resistance to unilateral pressure.

Gao outlines a tit-for-tat philosophy rooted in balance and dignity, insisting that if the U.S. imposes tariffs or threats, China will respond in kind. He dismisses the idea that these measures will bring manufacturing back to America, pointing instead to the lack of infrastructure, discipline, and political coherence required for such a transformation.

He also discusses the deep interdependence between nations, particularly between China and Australia, warning that protectionism could unravel decades of cooperative growth. Gao urges American leaders to respect global institutions and approach negotiations with mutual understanding, before economic brinkmanship leads to long-term global damage.
