GEOPOLITICS | Trump Omits China in State of the Union Address

U.S. President Donald Trump delivered his State of the Union speech, marking the first instance in two decades where a U.S. president did not directly mention China during the annual address to Congress. Bloomberg posted on X, highlighting this notable omission, which contrasts with previous speeches that often included references to China in discussions about trade, foreign policy, and economic competition. The absence of China in Trump's speech may reflect a shift in focus or strategy, as the administration navigates various domestic and international challenges. Observers are keen to understand the implications of this omission in the broader context of U.S.-China relations.
