China vows to 'fight to end' after Trump threatens with still more tariffs

China said Tuesday it would fight to the end and take countermeasures against the United States to safeguard its own interests after President Donald Trump threatened an additional 50% tariff on Chinese imports. The Commerce Ministry said the US' imposition of so-called reciprocal tariffs' on China is completely groundless and is a typical unilateral bullying practice. China has taken retaliatory tariffs and the ministry hinted in its latest statement that more many be coming. The countermeasures China has taken are aimed at safeguarding its sovereignty, security and development interests, and maintaining the normal international trade order. They are completely legitimate, the ministry said. The US threat to escalate tariffs on China is a mistake on top of a mistake and once again exposes the blackmailing nature of the US. China will never accept this. If the US insists on its own way, China will fight to the end. Trump's threat Monday of additional tariffs on China raised fresh .

China accuses US of protectionism, economic bullying with new tariffs

China on Monday accused the US of unilateralism, protectionism and economic bullying with tariffs, while calling on representatives of American companies including Tesla, to take concrete actions to resolve the tariffs. Putting America First over international rules harms the stability of global production and the supply chain and seriously impacts the world's economic recovery, Foreign Affairs spokesperson Lin Jian told reporters. Last week, Trump put an additional 34% tariff on Chinese goods as part of Liberation Day, coming on top of two rounds of 10% tariffs already declared in February and March, which Trump said was due to Beijing's role in the fentanyl crisis. China and other governments retaliated quickly. China announced its own 34% tariff rate on US goods, mirroring Trump's tariff rate for China. On Monday, Beijing struck a note of confidence even as markets in Hong Kong and Shanghai tumbled. The People's Daily, the Communist Party's official mouthpiece, had strong words.
