Foreign Ministry responds to "US tariff increase to 245% on China": you can ask the US side about the specific tax rate...
"This tariff war was initiated by the US side, and China's countermeasures are to safeguard its own legitimate rights and interests and international fairness and justice, which is entirely reasonable and legal. There is no winner in a tariff war or trade war. China does not want to fight, but it is absolutely not afraid to fight."
Some facts about the trade war:
1. The trade war was initiated by the United States. At the beginning of the trade war, China made concessions to the United States and reached an agreement with the US, but within less than 10 days, the US tore up the agreement.
2. Trump has no credibility whatsoever, whether to allies or opponents. It never takes the agreements it has reached seriously, and can turn around or break agreements at will.
3. What Trump wants is not just Chinese imports of American goods, but the entire industrial chain including clothing, shoes, cars, chips, and all other industries.
4. Trump does not pursue win-win results; what he wants is total victory for himself and complete defeat for his opponent.
