Chinese state media has threatened the US with “a showdown,” after President-elect Trump appointed economist Peter Navarro, who has been an outspoken critic of Chinese foreign policy, to his administration. Before his appointment, Mr. Navarro told Sputnik why he thinks “big bad China” is dangerous.
President-elect Donald Trump has appointed Professor Peter Navarro as the head of a new White House National Trade Council.
The news has caused diplomatic shock-waves.
In an editorial on Thursday December 22, the Communist party-back Global Times warned:
“If Washington dares to provoke China over its core interests, Beijing won’t fear setting up a showdown with the US, pressuring the latter to pay respect to China,” said the newspaper.
“The US can no longer push China around today.”
