Apparently China is out soliciting other countries to join hands with them in standing up to and combating Trump's tariffs. China went to Australia and solicited them to join hands with them in opposing the USA's tariffs but Australia told them to get stuffed, that in effect, Australia would not be holding China's hand and that they would be dealing with it on their own. This has in effect left China out in the cold with Xi twisting in the wind as virtually the only country left trying to fight negotiating with Trump on a new trade deal. This leaves China in something of a bind as now countries the world over seek ways of becoming less dependent on China for things.
