“If the US Insists on Its Own Way, China will Fight to the End” – China Says It Will Not Bow Down to Trump’s Tariff Threats
Earlier today, President Donald Trump has issued a powerful ultimatum to the Chinese Communist Party: withdraw your new 34% retaliatory tariff on U.S. goods by tomorrow or face a crippling 50% tariff from the United States.
Communist China’s tantrum came after President Trump’s bold and long-overdue move to impose reciprocal tariffs on Chinese imports—an action that millions of forgotten American workers have waited for decades to see.
But instead of accepting the reality that their days of robbing the U.S. blind are over, the CCP is resorting to its usual playbook of deceit, deflection, and economic warfare.
Beijing hit back to the threat, saying in a statement from its Ministry of Commerce, that “pressuring or threatening China is not a right way to engage.”
The Chinese Ministry of Commerce responded to Trump’s latest threat on Monday and did not hold back.
China is in complete denial and this won’t end well for them.
China has noted that on April 7, Eastern Time, the United States threatened to further impose 50% tariffs on China. China firmly opposes this. If the US escalates its tariff measures, China will resolutely take countermeasures to safeguard its own rights and interests.
The US’s imposition of so-called “reciprocal tariffs” on China is completely groundless and is a typical unilateral bullying practice. The countermeasures China has taken are aimed at safeguarding its sovereignty, security and development interests, and maintaining the normal international trade order. They are completely legitimate. The US threat to escalate tariffs on China is a mistake on top of a mistake and once again exposes the blackmailing nature of the US. China will never accept this. If the US insists on its own way, China will fight to the end.
China reiterates that there are no winners in a trade war and no way out of protectionism. Pressure and threats are not the right way to deal with China. China urges the US to immediately correct its wrong practices, cancel all unilateral tariff measures against China, stop economic and trade suppression of China, and properly resolve differences with China through equal dialogue on the basis of mutual respect.
