The US-China trade war could become a 'forever war' with dire economic consequences, warns economist Stephen Roach. The trade deficit is largely a result of federal budget deficits, not China's fault. The conflict has diverted trade to higher-cost countries and compromised US green-energy objectives. Meanwhile, the IMF warns that the geopolitical division between China and the West threatens global growth and trade cooperation. Economic fragmentation carries a high cost, and low-income countries would be hit hardest. Pragmatic steps, dialogue, and open communication are needed to prevent the worst outcomes. #TradeWar #GlobalEconomy #Geopolitics...
