Tariffs are “specific unilateral and protectionism, and economic bullying”, spokesperson Lin Gian said in a regular press conference, saying that American tariffs are interested in other countries only in the name of mutuality.
Last week, Trump introduced an additional 34% tariff on Chinese goods as part of the steep levy on most American trade partners, making the total duties on China 54% this year. China retaliated with a series of counterers.
