China sends a message to Mexico.
Reports say that Mexico plans to increase tariffs on Chinese products, and the Chinese Foreign Ministry responded that it firmly opposes imposing restrictions on China under pressure from others, under various pretexts, which would harm China's legitimate rights and interests. It is believed that the relevant countries will adhere to independence and autonomy, and properly handle the related issues.
In fact, Mexico's proposed tariff increase is an imitation of the United States, clearly under pressure from the Trump administration, rather than its stated "protecting domestic manufacturers from the competitive impact of Chinese subsidized products." It should be noted that Sino-Mexican trade ties are close — Mexico is China's second-largest trading partner in Latin America, and China is Mexico's third-largest export destination country. If Mexico disregards bilateral trade relations and insists on following the United States to take restrictive actions against China, China will certainly retaliate according to law, and Mexico itself will suffer heavy losses.
