Britain is ‘compliant servant of communist China’, says Trump’s tariff chief

  • Peter Navarro, trade advisor to Donald Trump, criticized Britain in a recent UK newspaper interview for being overly accommodating to the Chinese Communist Party.
  • Navarro warned that because of US tariffs on China, Beijing might target the UK and EU with cheap goods, exploiting their markets and spreading soft power through conditional investments.
  • He criticized the UK's ties with China, including attempts to involve Chinese investment in nuclear and 5G sectors, and urged vigilance against becoming dumping grounds for Chinese products diverted from the US market.
  • Navarro described China as the 'biggest cheater' and emphasized barriers like Britain's bans on hormone-treated beef and chlorine-washed chicken that complicate US-UK trade talks moving swiftly under 'Trump time.'
  • The UK government responded by affirming a clear, strategic approach to China that prioritizes economic prosperity without compromising security, amid tensions that could affect future UK-US trade agreements.
