Abstract :
This article is entirely analytical and descriptive about the ongoing US-CHINA trade war. The author has attempted to explore the realistic view of the economic competition of the worlds largest economies. In this globalized world economic nationalism is a high priority during the Trump administration. In international relations, every state seeks economic development and military power. Realists believe that state national interest must be on the priority and in order to protect and achieve state interests, every nation has the right to develop her capabilities. The United States is a world superpower that considers the economic rise of China in Asia as a threat to the global liberal order. Although the Chinese government has categorically stated that China’s objective is to develop trade relations with other nations of the world. According to the realist theory of international relations, every state has to develop her capabilities and also maintain the balance of power. The US policy is to maintain the status of a superpower, no other nation can challenge its economic and military superiority. The trade war between both nations is based on realistic views of international politics, China wants to develop its economic and military capabilities in order to secure its borders and territory. On the other side, the United States policy is to contain China’s economic rise in the region and in the world in order to maintain the global status quo dominant by her own interests.
