Option 2 : Both II and I are strong.

The correct answer is option 2, i.e. Both II and I are strong.

We first make sure to read the statement carefully and then see what immediate inferences can be drawn based on our first reading. The next step is to look at the arguments given in the options, analyze them and see if they seem relevant with respect to the information/data provided to us. Finally, it is very important to study the question closely.

Following the aforementioned steps we must analyze the given statement and the corresponding question closely. From the statement it is evident that Chinese President’s boycott against the American brands might affect have a negative impact on the Chinese firms also. Both the arguments (I) and (II) are strong as far as the given statement is concerned and are in the same sense and direction. Whereas, argument (III) is incorrect as from the argument it is evident that the clean wins (successful boycott of the brands) is extremely small (and not large) as from the statement, it is evident that the move will affect both the nations and as (III) weakens the given statement, it can be easily neglected.

Thus, the correct answer is option 2.
