By Scott Foster| Asia Times Verified Tech giant Huawei is better prepared for US President Donald Trump’s second assault on China than it was for his first. Rather than sanctions, the primary threat to the company’s sales and profits now appears to be the possibility of a tariff-induced recession. More than 70% of Huawei’s sales are now made in China. Huawei’s total sales are nearly back to their pre-sanctions peak, supported by a switch to domestic procurement.
By Scott Foster| Asia Times Verified After US Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth’s visit to mark the 80th anniversary of the World War II battle of Iwo Jima, the US-Japan military alliance appears to be in good health. However, the same cannot be said for the two allies’ economic relations after President Donald Trump’s recent announcement of additional 25% tariffs on imported autos, including those made in Japan. The Japanese regard this as both a serious threat to their domestic economy and a broken promise.
