China has issued a scathing rebuke towards US Vice President JD Vance, denouncing his comments as “ignorant and impolite.” The criticism comes in response to Vance’s recent remark regarding the United States borrowing funds from “Chinese peasants.” The Chinese foreign ministry spokesperson expressed dismay and disappointment at Vance’s choice of words, underscoring the existing strains in China-US economic ties amid ongoing trade disagreements and tariff issues. The rebuke signifies the escalating tensions between the two global economic powerhouses, as they navigate through a complex web of trade negotiations and economic policies.
