China is already aware that some of its products exported to the United States are subject to tariffs that, together, reach 245%, a spokesman for the Chinese Ministry of Commerce said on Wednesday.
“This fully exposes the irrational degree to which US practice has come to instrumentalize and militarize tariffs,” he said.
The representative of the portfolio reiterated that Beijing has already made clear his position on the “unilateral imposition” of overwhelms by Washington.
“China will not be carried away by this insignificant game of tariffs promoted by the US. However, if the US insists on substantially harming Chinese interests, China will counterattack firmly and fight to the end,” he added.
