According to an overnightĀ CNN report, Donald Trump’sĀ truce with ChinaĀ in the trade war he created could fall apart after his administration made twoĀ unforeseen ā€œbombshellā€ announcements.

Secretary of StateĀ Marco Rubio announced on Wednesday that the U.S. willĀ Ā ā€œaggressively revoke visas for Chinese studentsā€Ā studying in critical fields or if they have connections to the Chinese Communist Party, an announcement which was met with a wave of anger by families inĀ China, many of whom have saved for years to educate their children abroad.

The second blow came after the Financial Times reported that ā€œmoves by US President DonaldĀ TrumpĀ had effectively cut off some American companies fromĀ selling software used to design semiconductors to China.ā€

That one-two punch has reportedly ā€œinfuriatedā€ Chinese authorities who felt they had made progress with the volatile Trump as the clock ticks on a 90-day pause on increased tariffs.
