China’s Xinjiang more than doubled its US exports in 2020, despite Trump’s sanctions and bans

• Xinjiang’s exports to the US rose by 116 per cent last year, led by strong sales of wind turbines, some chemicals and Christmas decorations

• Figures come as new US President Joe Biden plots his course on Xinjiang, but analysts do not expect a dramatic shift from hardline Trump era

Xinjiang’s exports to the United States more than doubled last year, despite increasing pressure on US companies to cut ties with the western Chinese region.

Shipments rose by 116 per cent in 2020 compared to 2019, analysis of Chinese customs data shows, led by strong sales of wind-powered electric generating sets, which jumped by 3,265 per cent from a year earlier and accounted for almost one quarter of all Xinjiang’s exports to the US.

Make Xinjiang Great Again.

Business vs. Geopolitics. Business wins. Business class is much less ideological, and guided by interests.

Xinjiang thanks Trump, much appreciated.

Xinjiang thanks Trump, much appreciated.

It is an encouraging development that US politics has become politician-oriented, rather than politics-oriented.

Smart Asian countries are taking advantage of this (Maybe even !ndia).
