The original title: they are really sour: China has too much money, so …

After US Treasury Secretary Mnuchin declared that China was "too rich", Trump also pressed the World Bank to stop providing low-interest loans to China.

The United States has been pressuring the World Trade Organization that China should be excluded from developing countries. Now, similar pressure has shifted to the World Bank.

The board of directors of the World Bank approved a new plan on Thursday (5th) to provide low-interest loans of US $1 billion to US $1.5 billion a year to China by June 2025.

As soon as the news came out, the American side flew into a rage. Mr Trump followed after Mr Mnuchin's "opposition".

On Friday (6th), local time, Trump looked exasperated.TwitterIt says, "Why does the World Bank lend to China? Is that possible? " He also claimed, "China has a lot of money, and if they don't, they will create it themselves." Stop it! "

On Thursday, local time, the US Treasury Secretary claimed that China was "too rich" for this kind of assistance. "China has provided hundreds of billions of dollars in loans to poor countries through 'Belt and Road Initiative' infrastructure construction.

However, unilateral opposition by the United States will not change the decision of the World Bank.

Russia (RT) pointed out today that the United States has been strongly opposed to this plan. Although it can veto major decisions within the World Bank, it has no influence over the loan program because it is not decided by a formal vote.

In addition, the World Bank also explained the need for loans to China under its five-year Plan. "the loans provided to China in the five-year Plan are aimed at promoting market and fiscal reforms and encouraging the development of private enterprises; promote green growth by reducing pollution and carbon emissions; and increase Chinese citizens' access to health and social services."
