Moreover, US President Joe Biden recently said that it could make a military jump in Taiwan if China, like Russia, which invaded Ukraine, attacked it. So who wins in military battles?

When the war started, the economies of both countries slowed down and stopped the production of many goods and services.
On the import side, demand for goods such as coal, which is a source of energy for power generation in both countries, has decreased. Coal prices also fell because the US and China are the main buyers of coal.
