[Thu, 17 Apr 2025 10:19:48 +0300] Beijing – SABA: China’s Ministry of Commerce stated on Wednesday that the U.S. threat to impose 245% tariffs on Chinese imports shows that the United States has reached an irrational level in using tariffs as a weapon.
In a statement published online, the ministry said, “This fully proves that the United States has already reached an irrational state in its use of tariffs as a tool and weapon.” The White House had earlier issued a statement indicating that China may face tariffs of up to 245% on its exports to the U.S.
in response to China’s retaliatory trade measures against previously imposed American tariffs. On April 2, U.S.
President Donald Trump signed an executive order mandating "reciprocal" tariffs on imports from other countries. The additional "reciprocal" tariffs on Chinese goods have reached 125%, and the U.S.
has also imposed another 20% tariff on China, citing accusations of insufficient action against synthetic drug trafficking..
