Donald Trump enjoyed all the pomp and circumstance of his
trip to see China’s president Xi
Jinping, but left Beijing with China continuing
to help Iran in its war against the US and
Israel – and no significant trade deals agreed with the rival superpower.
He was played as predictably as he was in his Alaska
summit in Anchorage with Vladimir Putin.
Confronted with a Chinese economy that is fast expanding its
military power and has eclipsed the US in global control of rare-earth
minerals, the US president was treated to festivals of flags and flower-waving,
a banquet, and blatant contempt wrapped in spectacle to distract a global
leader so far out of his depth he doesn’t know he is drowning.
The 47th president of the US so enjoyed his two-day trip
that he felt comfortable enough to heap racist praise on his host.
Xi was, he told Fox News, “tall, very tall, and especially
for this country, because they tend to be a little bit shorter”.
One can only guess what the Chinese said about Trump behind
his back. We can assume from the briefings from Beijing that it was not
flattering, given that China reminded him to stay out of Taiwanese issues or
risk an outright conflict.
Trump hoped to flog some planes. Boeing, he said, got an
order for 200 aircraft. Good news, except the company had hoped to sell China
500.
And when it came to any support against Iran’s military
machine – which relies heavily on Chinese components for its missiles and
drones, 60 per cent of which are reported to have survived the US-Israeli
bombardment intact – Trump got nothing.
A renewed agreement that Iran should not be allowed to
develop nuclear weapons is a repeat of China’s longstanding policy.

There was also no commitment from China to use its leverage
with Tehran to open the Strait
of Hormuz, which Iran has blocked since it was attacked in February,
driving oil prices above $100 (£74) a barrel.
This should have been an easy agreement to get, since China
obtains almost half of its oil supply from the Arabian Gulf. It also enjoys a
discount on sanctioned Iranian oil exports, which the US is blockading now.
All the Chinese foreign ministry had to say on Iran was:
“This conflict, which should never have happened, has no reason to continue.”
In fact, China has sat back to watch how Trump will wriggle
out of an illegal war he started alongside Benjamin
Netanyahu, who has been indicted by the International Criminal Court for
alleged war crimes in Gaza.

As Trump wound up his visit to China, Iran saw an
opportunity to once again demonstrate the limits of US power.
Abas Araqchi, Iran’s foreign minister, said his country has
“no trust” in Washington and will negotiate only if the US is serious.
In a gift to China, he also said that all vessels can now
transit through the Strait of Hormuz – apart from those belonging to countries
that are at war with Iran.
How that is defined remains to be seen, but it reinforces
the global perception that Iran’s regime, which backs terrorism, kills its
internal opponents and causes instability across the Middle East, is actually a
victim.
China had everything to gain from giving Trump a little
diplomatic win with an undertaking to lean on Tehran. But Xi didn’t need to
bother, having distracted Trump with the theatre of being in his presence.
Xi, like Putin, is a man that Trump would like to be. The
Chinese and Russian leaders rule with near absolute power, untrammelled by real
democracy.

Trump has aped their domestic approach by making the
military and security services entirely dependent on him; he is working to
dissolve the independence of the judiciary; and he has created a class of
oligarchs who are dependent on his policies for their personal enrichment.
But while Trump has no vision beyond his own power and the
creation of wealth for his cronies, Xi has a strategic vision and plan that
extends China’s power across the coming decades.
The US has the biggest economy in the world. It has the most
powerful military. Its cultural norms reach into every household on earth with
access to a TV streaming service. And yet Trump is brushed off with a tea party
in Beijing, and sent home with a meagre goody bag.
