特朗普撑不住了？深夜喊话中国，想让中方不计前嫌，帮美国一个忙

Core Viewpoint - Trump is urging China to significantly increase its soybean purchases from the U.S. to reduce the trade deficit, claiming that American farmers can provide the highest quality soybeans [1][3][19]. Group 1: Trade Dynamics - In 2016, U.S. soybeans accounted for over 40% of China's soybean imports, but this changed drastically due to the tariff war initiated by Trump, which led to a 23% retaliatory tariff on U.S. agricultural products, including soybeans [5][12]. - By 2024, the U.S. soybean export value to China is projected to be approximately $12.6 billion, representing more than half of the total exports, but this is expected to decline significantly by 2025 if orders cease [7][12]. Group 2: Market Shifts - China has proactively sought stable soybean import agreements with countries like Brazil, which now supplies over 70% of China's soybean market, while the U.S. share has dropped to around 20% [10][12]. - Brazilian soybeans are approximately 15% cheaper than U.S. soybeans and do not face additional tariff barriers, making them a more attractive option for China [12][14]. Group 3: Political Implications - Trump's appeal to China reflects a sense of urgency as American farmers, particularly in Republican strongholds, face financial distress due to the trade war [7][17]. - The ongoing trade negotiations and the temporary suspension of tariffs indicate a complex relationship, with both sides retaining leverage and the potential for future negotiations remaining uncertain [21][23].
