China Vows Strong Countermeasures Against US Tariffs, Calls for Dialogue

China's Firm Stance Against New US Tariffs

The Chinese Ministry of Commerce has expressed strong opposition to the new 10% tariff on all Chinese goods imposed by United States President Donald Trump. This move is seen as a serious violation of World Trade Organization (WTO) rules, threatening the economic and trade cooperation between the two nations.

Call for Dialogue and Cooperation

China urges the United States to correct its approach and engage in frank dialogue to strengthen cooperation and manage differences on the basis of equality, mutual benefit, and mutual respect. The ministry emphasizes the importance of resolving disputes through dialogue rather than unilateral actions.

Legal Action and Countermeasures

In response to the tariffs, China plans to file a lawsuit with the WTO against the US for its wrongful practice. Additionally, China promises to take necessary countermeasures to protect its rights and interests, signaling a robust stance against what it perceives as unfair treatment.
