That's neither here nor there, we're discussing China's actions in the context of free trade being the global norm and having established organization like the WTO to ensure a certain level of reciprocity.

The larger point is that China is practicing extreme protectionism while benefitting greatly from free trade.

More power to them, then? Sounds like a good way benefit their country.

The GP literally mentions protectionism in the context of the 19th century. I think you’re in the wrong thread.
