#USChinaTensions U.S.-China tensions have escalated sharply in April 2025, with both nations imposing steep tariffs—up to 145% by the U.S. and 125% by China—on each other's goods. China has warned other countries against forming trade agreements with the U.S. that could undermine Chinese interests, threatening retaliatory measures. In a significant move, China has effectively banned imports of Boeing aircraft, impacting the aerospace industry and leading to a decline in Boeing's stock value. These developments have disrupted global trade, with exporters facing delays and economic forecasts being downgraded due to the ongoing trade war.
