China Fires Back at U.S. Over Massive 104% Tariffs

Beijing Breaks Silence:

“We Chinese are not troublemakers, but we won’t back down from a challenge. Intimidation, threats, and blackmail are not the way to deal with China.

We will never allow anyone to take away the Chinese people's rightful path to development. Any attempt to undermine our sovereignty, security, or interests will be met head-on.

Judging by U.S. actions, there’s no genuine intention to talk. If Washington truly wants dialogue, it must come with equality, respect, and mutual benefit.

But if the U.S. insists on a trade war — then China is ready to respond until the very end.”
