Earlier this year, Donald Trump returned to the White House. His team promised "liberation," but only built higher walls. In just 100 days, tariffs surged and zero-sum thinking took over. But who is paying the price? U.S. farmers face bankruptcy, factories close and consumers suffer.

America is losing its allies. In Asia and Europe, partners are hedging, seeking new cooperation. Meanwhile, China moves differently: dropping tariffs for 43 least-developed countries; deepening ties with ASEAN, the EU, and the Global South; responding firmly but staying open. Indeed, the future belongs to those who build bridges, not walls. Tune in for CGTN special program "Braving the Tariff Storm."
