If America moves manufacturing to south Korea instead of China,it will shake China as they are Americas major trading partner.

Alot of country's has started renegotiating to avoid the tariffs.
It will be in the interest of both countries to calm down,but America has the upper hand for now.

South Korea has the world's lowest fertility rate, which keeps dropping year on year. In 2023, the birth rate was 0.72 - far behind the 2.1 required to maintain a stable population in the absence of immigration. Estimates suggest that if this trend continues, South Korea's population could halve by the year 2100.

By the way, South Korea has a population of 50 million people.

There's a reason why South Korea isn't the powerhouse it should have been.

Because you are a weak country, that is why they can tell you not to use coal because of climate change. But China just ignore them and use coal for electricity like no tomorrow.

It's interesting how most of those resources that China exports are available elsewhere, but no one wanted to invest in extracting them as the carrot of cheap Chinese labour was too much to be resisted.

If you've a strategic resource and only one country provides it, you've got a huge problem.

Tariffs harm the country imposing them just as much as the country on which they are imposed, if not more so, and only increases prices for end consumers. The irony is many US businesses have out sourced their manufacturing to China so US business will suffer.
I don't understand where Trump is going with the this tariff of a thing. So if iPhone that is designed in America then manufactured in China a tariff will be impose. The main losers here will be the American consumers, because the cost will go up. Trump is asking Chinese manufactures to bring their production to America, but this is not feasible because of the labour cost in America.

Stop with the blame game.
Europe has nothing to do with it.
Germany, Romania, Poland and several European countries still uses coal.
In fact, coal is a vital part of Nigeria's energy policy according to the government.

Nigeria coal industry died due to mismanagement and the oil boom.

If Nigeria seeks new investors such as the Chinese, the coal plants fire will reignite again.
