In recent days, global markets have spiraled into turmoil, shaken profoundly by the United States’ abrupt imposition of sweeping “reciprocal” tariffs. The policy, aggressively championed by US President Donald Trump as “medicine” for America’s trade deficits, is proving to be far from therapeutic. Instead, it threatens to destabilize the global economy, undermining decades of multilateral cooperation and aligned growth.

This move — an outright interference in China’s internal affairs that blatantly disregards international law — is not new, but its absurdity and hypocrisy are becoming increasingly obvious and troubling.

The recent decision by CK Hutchison Holdings to sell its 43 overseas port operations, including the two at each end of the Panama Canal, to a consortium led by United States investment firm BlackRock has ignited fierce backlash from Hong Kong society.

Once again, the United Kingdom published a six-monthly report on Hong Kong, a document regrettably steeped in misinformation, outdated cliches, and blatant political bias.
