"This commitment is based on friendly China-U.S. cooperation and the rational and objective premise of bilateral trade," Ma told Xinhua on Wednesday. "The current situation has already destroyed the original premise. There is no way to deliver the promise."

Ma has already warned that the trade war between the world's two largest economies could last decades and that China should focus exports on the "Silk Road" trade route, citing Africa, Southeast Asia and Europe.

Yep. Not to mention employ primarily Chinese workers for construction and operations. So the countries it is going through won't get more jobs OR revenue from the RR.

On a closely related note it seems that the US under the Trump regime has abdicated its former role as the world's economic and moral leader:

"Putin and Xi are on the same page when it comes to the fundamental concept of a desirable world order," Dmitri Trenin, the director of the Carnegie Moscow Center think tank, wrote in an opinion piece in China Daily, a Chinese state-run newspaper.

Their shared ideals include "several independent power centers instead of a single-nation hegemony; protection of state sovereignty from foreign political and ideological influence; and full equality among peers, including the United States," he wrote last week.
