Tariffs, export controls, tech decoupling — and the very different stories US and Chinese sources tell about the same numbers.
The US–China relationship has become a structural economic conflict. US coverage frames tariffs and export controls as defensive responses to unfair Chinese practices, IP theft, and security threats. Chinese coverage frames the same measures as containment policy, hegemonic behaviour, and protectionism dressed up as security. Both sides share most of the headline numbers but read them through opposite causal lenses.
NarrativeRadar tracks tariff rounds, semiconductor controls, rare-earth and supply-chain decisions, and the corporate-level fallout. The hub shows the same events from both perspectives and surfaces the points where the narratives genuinely diverge.
