China's per capita car exports are a tiny fraction of those of Japan, Germany, and South Korea. So why aren't those countries accused of "overcapacity"? Why are they allowed to export so much with no US backlash? Let's review the data:
Vehicle exports in 2023:
-China, 4.91 million
-Japan, 4.42 million
-Germany, 3.11 million
-South Korea, 2.76 million
China's population is:
-11 times that of Japan
-17 times Germany
-27 times South Korea
So their per capita exports in 2023 were one car for every:
-290 Chinese
-28 Japanese
-27 Germans
-19 South Koreans
In other words:
-South Korea exports 15 times more cars per capita than China.
-Germany exports 11 times more cars per capita than China.
-Japan exports 10 times more cars per capita than China.
If China is distorting global markets due to "overcapacity", as the US government claims, then Japan, Germany, and South Korea have been at a whole other level of extreme overcapacity for decades.
But these countries are close US allies, so - unlike with China - the Treasury secretary doesn't tell them to cut back production, take away jobs from its people, and sacrifice growth on behalf of Washington.

Our editor Ben Norton sat down for this interview with @thebridgepodcast5463 in Beijing to discuss why so many countries are de-dollarizing and seeking alternatives to US-dominated institutions like the IMF and World Bank, how Washington weaponizes the dollar and the global financial system, and the important role of the Belt and Road Initiative in this rapidly changing multipolar world.

I interviewed a journalist in Argentina to discuss the judicial coup there. It is difficult to find guests with good politics who speak English, so the video is in Spanish with English subtitles.
I am also working on editing an interview with an activist in Peru about the coup there.
If you want to listen to my analysis in English, I have a podcast here discussing the coups in both Peru and Argentina: soundcloud.com/multipolarista/coup-peru-argentina-…
