After Trump came to power, the possibility of starting a trade war between China and the United States has greatly increased. At a critical moment, Russia has given China a "Crossing Treasure".
Recently, Russias "Truth" recently published an article called "China should learn from Russia to counter US sanctions" , which proposed: After being elected President Trump in the United States, Trump threatens sanctions on China, Beijing can learn from Russias experience.
The media said that "Russia has successfully cope with the pressure of Western sanctions for many years and avoids economic collapse. Moreover, the Russian economy is increasing."

This point of saying does have some reason.Since the outbreak of Russia and Ukraines conflict, Western countries such as the United States have launched trade siege in Russia. its means include key trade industries such as Russia and the outside world, as well as the use of US dollars as pressure., Large -scale frozen overseas assets in Russia.
Now Trump returns to the White House, and the geopolitical tension has been further upgraded. The probability of the Sino -US trade war 2.0 has increased significantly.For means, may also be applied to China.
In this context, China should indeed learn from Russias response experience when facing US sanctions. By taking preventive measures, further consolidate key resourcesThe supply chain is safe, especially in strategic fields such as food, energy and minerals. The stable supply of these resources is related to the sustainable development of the industry and the stable operation of the national economy, which is a necessary condition for maintaining the national economic security.
And Russias practice under sanctions, especially in terms of resource self -sufficiency, industry independence, and economic tough construction, it provides important reference for China.

Construction of energy supply chain.Russias energy industry has accelerated its dependence on Europe due to sanctions and expanded the cooperative market with Asian countries. China can learn from this market diversification strategy to further increase the dispersion of the source of energy imports to reduce the dependence of a minority exporter .In addition, China can accelerate the development of clean energy and energy storage technology and enhance the capacity of independent protection of domestic energy.
In terms of financial security, Russia has vigorously de -US dollar, establishing an independent payment system, and increasing non -US dollar foreign exchange reserves. These measures effectively reduce the risk of US financial sanctions. China can learn from experience, accelerate the construction of RMB internationalization and financial infrastructure construction , simplify the cross -border RMB payment process, strengthen the share of RMB settlement in regional trade to enhance the independence of the financial system.
But to note that When drawing on Russias response sanctions experience, China needs to fully combine its own national conditions to avoid simple use of Russia.

There are differences in many aspects of China and Russia, which determines that China should adopt a more flexible and independent strategy.
Compared with Russia, China ’s international strategic positioning and foreign resources is more diverse, and it has a broad space for cooperation with many countries.This allows China to have more diplomatic rooms than Russia , such as strengthening economic relations with the European Union, Asia, Africa, Latinoma and other regions, not just relying on specific markets or regions.China can expand markets and cooperation opportunities through multiple levels to avoid being restricted by single dependence.
In addition, Chinese financial and technical resources are richer than Russia .In terms of finance, China can accelerate the internationalization of RMB and digital RMB in order to cope with potential financial sanctions.In the field of technology, China should strengthen the "card neck" breakthrough ability of independent research and development and consolidate key technologies, and achieve technical independence in chip and energy reserves.
In short, in the face of the Sino -US trade war that the United States may set off in the future, China has made full preparations for the war, just like Hua Chunying, deputy minister of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in my country, said before that Hua Chunying has previously said After, China does not want to fight a trade war with anyone. "But if someone has not forced us to fight, we will not be afraid and will not hide."
