US plays Russian roulette with the global economy

Mexico has told the Chinese government that the trade terms it agreed with the United States and Canada will not ruin its relationship with China.

In a phone call on Saturday, Mexican Foreign Minister Luis Videgary told his Chinese counterpart Wang Yi that the trade terms it agreed with the United States and Canada do not represent an obstacle to Mexico's economic relationship with China.

That is good to hear, as it is important that trade agreements do not hinder the normal order of global trade by targeting another party, otherwise they will cause chaos in the global trade system.
