China emerges from treasure bonds in a new chapter of the conflict with the US.

Recent data published by the United States Department of the Treasury reveal that in March of this year China reduced its treasure bond holdings, which led its holdings to a total of USD 765.4 billion, the lowest level since 2009. This movement occurs in the midst of the pause agreed by both governments to the tariff war.

The cut marks the third consecutive month in which China decreases its exposure to US debt, A pattern that analysts link with a broader strategy of reduction of geopolitical and financial risks. Beijing is diversifying its reserves with the inclusion of assets not called in dollars, such as gold and other currencies, in an effort to reduce its dependence on the US dollar.

With this cut, China fell to third place among the largest American debt creditorsbeing surpassed by the United Kingdom, whose holdings rose to 779,000 million dollars: according to the official US Treasury data. Japan remains the main holder, with more than 1.1 billion dollars in bonds.

The publication of these data is made within the framework with the recent agreement scheduled between Donald Trump and Xi Jinping. Both powers decided to reduce tariffs and suspend a good part of reciprocal rates for 90 days, as reported by cryptootics.

The cut by the Chinese Chinese government contrasts with the pattern followed during February – when the first tariff measures were implemented – moment China had increased their holdings by more than 20,000 million dollars. A decision that surprised many analysts and is associated with a more optimistic vision after Trump’s government to the White House.

But now, when we part with treasury bonds, everything points to a broader disadvantage strategy. A movement that China promotes with other countries and strategic allies. The plan is Build an international financial system less dependent on the dollarin the face of possible sanctions or restrictions such as those imposed on Russia in previous years.

In fact, in the specific case of Russia, reports of the Eurasian Economic Union claim to have reached a 93% defolarization in regional trade. The announcement was made on May 16 by the Deputy Minister of Economic Development, Dmitry Volive.

Meanwhile, the friction between China and the US enters a phase of tense calm. It is likely that, in this period of pause, China’s defolarization strategy accelerates, marking a new stage in economic rivalry.

According to the figures published by the Reuters agency, global holdings reached a new historical maximum: they went from 8.81 billion dollars in February, to more than 233 billion dollars in March. An estimated that can go against the Delarization Plan.
