The US-China trade war could benefit Europe, Mexico and Japan
Hong Kong (CNN Business)The trade war between the United States and China has caused major disruptions for global businesses — but it may also bring benefits for some.

“The effect of US-China tariffs would be mainly distortionary,” said Pamela Coke-Hamilton, head of UNCTAD’s international trade division. “US-China bilateral trade will decline and be replaced by trade originating in other countries.”
