FIGHT TO THE END: China Tells Trump That They Are ‘Ready For War’ With America Whether It Be Over Tariffs, Trade Or Any Other Type Of Battle
China says it is ‘ready for war’ with America as it raises defence spending and imposes retaliatory tariffs on US imports.
The only problem with talking tough is that at some point, somebody will take you up on it, and today Communist China has issued a statement saying they are not afraid of any type of war that President Trump and his administration may wish to engage in. China has the second largest military defense spending budget in the world, second only to America. China also has the world’s largest standing army with just under 3 million soldiers, nearly triple the size of America’s military. Fun fact, 2025 is the Chinese Year of the Snake, and that’s the memo.

Donald Trump has burst back into the Oval Office, raring to go and take on the world, and he was settled on a “slash and burn” approach to making it happen. That makes for great headlines, it doesn’t necessarily make for good foreign policy. Putting tariffs on countries like Canada and Mexico is one thing, doing it to China is something else entirely. As we told you yesterday, over in Europe they have begun to prepare for the global conflict that just about everyone concedes as inevitable. Is it? Sure looks that way. Wars and rumours of war are everywhere you look, exactly as your King James Bible tells you it will be in the time of the end. You are here.
China says it is ‘ready for war’ with America
FROM THE TELEGRAPH UK: In a direct threat to Donald Trump, China’s representatives in America said: “If war is what the US wants, be it a tariff war, a trade war or any other type of war, we’re ready to fight till the end.” The US has hit China with 20 per cent tariffs in response to what the White House considers to be Chinese inaction over the flow of fentanyl into America. Beijing has responded by announcing plans to boost defence spending by 7.2 per cent and to hit the US with reciprocal tariffs of 10 to 15 per cent on certain imports from March 10.
The fiery language comes as China’s top legislature met for annual “Two Sessions” meetings in Beijing, where plans to boost defence spending by 7.2 per cent were revealed. The rise in spending is equal to the jump last year and takes the official budget to roughly 1.78 trillion yuan (£190 billion), as China pursues the goal of Xi Jinping, its president, to build a modern military by 2027.
On Wednesday, Li Qiang, China’s premier, vowed there would be “all out efforts” to hit the target in his annual address to the legislature, adding that Beijing “will step up military training and combat readiness so as to firmly safeguard China’s sovereignty, security and development interests”.
The Asian superpower has stoked alarm with increasingly aggressive moves in Asia and the Pacific – including recent live-fire drills off the Australian coast, military exercises close to Taiwan and Vietnam and confrontations with the Philippine coast guard in the South China Sea. Japan, South Korea and India have all criticised the projections of military might.
Earlier this week, it was revealed that China is developing a new nuclear-powered aircraft carrier, which would be larger and more advanced than any vessel in its fleet, in an attempt to rival the US. Although Beijing has the second-largest military budget in the world, however, it remains dwarfed by American spending – even accounting for Mr Trump’s plans to cut the budget by eight per cent over the next five years.
The US military budget for 2025 stands at around $850 billion (£662 billion). Although the Pentagon says China spends more than it publicly declares – up to $450 billion, when items listed in other budgets are included – the official sum still represents less than two per cent of GDP, which is below Sir Keir Starmer’s proposed spend of 2.5 per cent. Analysts have cautioned that despite the strong rhetoric, China is not yet actively gearing up for war. Beijing’s strong language was triggered by the Trump administration’s new tariffs, which also hit Mexico and Canada and came into force on Tuesday. READ MORE
China says it is ‘ready for war’ with America on any level
Donald Trump has admitted his tariffs on major trading partners will cause “a little disturbance” – as China said it was “ready” for “any type of war” with the US. The US president made his comments in an address to Congress, hours after the levies on imports came into effect. The Chinese embassy in the US posted on X: “If war is what the US wants, be it a tariff war, a trade war or any other type of war, we’re ready to fight till the end.”
