China Threatens to Retaliate Against Trump's Latest Tariff, Adding to Tit-for-Tat Moves -- WSJ

Dow Jones04-08

China is threatening to retaliate further against the U.S. if President Trump carries out his threat to raise the tariff on Chinese goods by an additional 50%.

A statement from the Ministry of Commerce on Tuesday said that if the U.S. escalates tariffs, "China will resolutely take countermeasures to safeguard its own rights and interests." Previously China announced a blanket 34% tariff on American goods, matching the level of Trump's April 2 tariff on Chinese imports.
