Trump intends to demand from China to pay debts on bonds of the beginning of the 20 century




Donald Trump is considering options for repaying debts on Chinese bonds issued during the reign of emperors. According to the publication, the US president has already met with a group of people who hold such shares on their hands, and who demand to support them in an effort to get money on bonds. According to one of the founders of the fund of holders of Chinese shares, the amount of payments on them, taking into account inflation, accrued interest and compensation, is more than a trillion dollars.

The publication explains that the bulk of Chinese bonds held by the United States were issued at the beginning of the last century to raise funds for the construction of railways.

At the same time, the Chinese authorities do not recognize the debts of the pre-revolutionary governments and refuse to pay them. Note that the United States and China are currently in a state of trade war.

Recall that earlier a group of French citizens applied with a similar requirement to pay debts on bonds issued at the end of the nineteenth century for the construction of railways in Russia, but they were also refused payments, since all financial claims between Moscow and Paris were settled in 90's.

    And Trump did not forget about the huge US debt to China.
    According to the US Treasury, the value of Chinese bonds, notes and bills rose by $ 126,5 billion to 1,18 trillion. US dollars in December 2017. Thus, China remains the largest holder of US debt, overtaking Japan by this indicator, whose investment in US public debt fell in December to 1,06 trillion. dollars, reports UNV.

            If we are talking about offsetting Chinese investments in US bonds and imperial debt, the US government will still have to pay this money to holders of Chinese bonds.

            There is probably a benefit, money remains in the country, but they still have to be paid from the budget

        There is an interesting conflict.
        1. China (PRC) considers Taiwan a province of the PRC. If so, then with the issue of debt, not everything is clear; the PRC cannot transfer arrows to Taiwan for political reasons.
        2. The United States considers Taiwan an independent state. If so, from which of the Chinese states to demand debt? Considering paragraph 1, Trump will definitely shake the PRC (if it comes to real claims), but then the U.S.-PRC trade war will become total, then what is happening now - the first flowers and the PRC are really time to cash out US debt and look for an alternative to the dollar.

      the amount of payments on them, taking into account inflation, interest and compensation, is more than a trillion dollars.
      this can be offset (I don’t think that all American debt is of pre-revolutionary origin).

And the demand for cheap Chinese goods will increase. If their import is not banned at all. Which is generally logical. But then color revolutions will occur already in the United States.

              not an economist, but it’s also not easy with China, there are a lot of its own stockpiles. China will not be able to take over the states at this stage (purely my opinion). the Chinese need us more and more, and instead of taking advantage of this, we are bending more and more under them. Trump is the hero of Russia and the hero of capitalist labor in one glass and a very useful person for Russia (if it were a good idea to use his twists).

      Mexico, represented by the descendants of the Aztecs and Mayans, and Peru, Ecuador, Colombia and Chile, as descendants of the Incas, are simply obliged to demand the return of all gold and silver from Spain.
      Manhattan must be demanded back by the Indians with a criminal case on fraud by Peter Minuit.
      Mexico will not be such if it does not return Texas, California, Arizona, New Mexico.

    Oh yes Trumpushka, oh yes "well done." Not a single US president has thought of this, but Trump did. I think that the Chinese will twist their fingers at their temples and sigh sadly.

      The United States is looking for a way to zero its own Treasuries. This is slightly different from the "compensation for the Tatar-Mongol yoke". But the meaning is something like this:
      - Dear neighbor, do you remember that you owe me $ 100?
      “I remember that you went to my wife in my absence.”
      - ... and why I am so forgetful, it’s the same I owe you these $ 100!
      - This time, yes, but then it will be much more expensive.
