us-china trade war

The **US-China trade war** refers to a period of escalating economic conflict between the United States and China, beginning in 2018, when the U.S. government imposed tariffs on a wide range of Chinese goods to address issues such as trade imbalances, intellectual property theft, and unfair trade practices. China responded with its own tariffs on U.S. products. The dispute led to significant economic uncertainty, renegotiations of trade terms, and partial agreements aimed at reducing tensions.
