On April 8, Eastern Time, the United States will further increase the so-called "reciprocal tariffs" of 34% on Chinese products imported to the United States by further increasing by 50% to 84%.
A spokesperson for the Ministry of Commerce announced today that China sued the United States for the latest tariff measures under the WTO dispute settlement mechanism. The US tax measures seriously violate WTO rules. The additional 50% tariff this time is a mistake, which highlights the unilateral bullying nature of the US measures. China will firmly defend its legitimate rights and interests in accordance with the rules of the WTO, and firmly safeguard the multilateral trading system and international economic and trade order.
