To be fair, China doesn't really want "fair" trade either. China would like to become a high-tech autarky dominating modern global supply chains [1], is very happy to throw its economic weight around to punish countries for doing things it doesn't like [2][3], and has a habit of playing by international rules only when it suits them (America isn't great on this point either) [3][4].
