Just learned that China has taken an extremely aggressive stance on trade issues, sending a highly hostile letter to the world stating that starting from November 1, 2025, it will implement large-scale export controls on almost all products it produces, including some products not produced by it. This affects all countries without exception, and is clearly part of a plan they developed many years ago. This is absolutely unheard of in international trade and is a moral disgrace when dealing with other countries.
Based on the fact that China has taken this unprecedented stance, representing only the United States (not other similarly threatened countries), starting from November 1, 2025 (or earlier, depending on any further actions or changes taken by China), the United States will impose a 100% tariff on China, in addition to any tariffs it is currently paying. Similarly, on November 1, we will implement export controls on all critical software.
It is hard to believe that China would take such action, but they have indeed done so, and the rest is history. Thank you for your attention to this matter!
Donald J. Trump
President of the United States
