In its latest response to the steeply increased 🇺🇲US tariffs, 🇨🇳 China’s Ministry of Commerce said in a statement that Beijing “respects all parties' efforts to resolve their trade disputes with the US through equal consultation.” However, China will not accept any US-led trade deals that harm its interests and will “respond resolutely and reciprocally with countermeasures” to safeguard its rights and interests.
In the statement, China described the US tariffs as “unilateral bullying” in international trade, adding that “if international trade regresses to the law of the jungle where the strong prey on the weak, all countries will become victims.”
