China Tells

Forbes: It is the old saying in China: When a snipe and a clam are locked in a battle, the fisherman benefits. President Obama might never have thought that when he increase the tariff on Chinese tires into the States, the only realy beneficiaries are not his fellow country man, but the tire manufacturers in Indonesia, South Korea and Thailand. IT seems that Amercian companies are unlikely to source tires from domestic makers as the other Asian countreis can easily fill the gap left by Chinese tire makers at a similarly competitive price. If the trade war continues between China and US, neither would be winning anything and only benefits the other competitions.

福布斯：奥巴马总统在签署对中国轮胎实施惩罚性关税的时候，可能没有想到美国的轮胎制造工人几乎不会从中获得任何实利。事实上，中国轮胎被挤出美国市场之后，最大的受惠者是亚洲其他国家的轮胎制造商，比如印尼，韩国和泰国等等。从中可以看出，单纯的贸易战无法改善某国行业或者经济团体，只会引发更加剧烈的贸易保护战从而使交战双方两败俱伤。
