I don\u2019t blame Vietnam.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The US president has attacked the EU, which has imposed and then suspended retaliatory tariffs against US steel and aluminium, by claiming that the bloc was \u201cformed in order to screw the United States\u201d. <\/p>\n<p>Trump has made clear that he expects foreign leaders to capitulate to his tariff campaign and offer deals to the US to resolve the trade wars he has launched against dozens of countries.<\/p>\n<p>While Vietnam has made overtures to Washington, Beijing has made clear that it will not cave to what it views as bullying tactics.<\/p>\n<p>Critics of Trump\u2019s approach have warned that pressure on south-east Asian nations, which the US had been trying to draw into its diplomatic orbit, risked producing the opposite outcome by pushing them closer to Beijing. <\/p>\n<p>In addition to Vietnam, Xi will visit Malaysia and Cambodia this week.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Countries such as Cambodia, Bangladesh and Vietnam, which manufacture low-cost goods, have been slapped with some of the highest tariff rates due to their trade deficits with the US. The Trump administration has also accused countries in south-east Asia of serving as a conduit for Chinese companies seeking to avoid American tariffs.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>South-east Asian governments had already warned of slowing growth from a trade war between the US and China, as their economies are heavily dependent on trade with the two superpowers.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Earlier in the week, Xi warned that the trade war would produce \u201cno winners\u201d and that countries should stand by the multilateral trading system. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>Read the full article <a
