If China does not cancel the 34% increase in tariffs by tomorrow, April 8, the US will impose additional tariffs of 50% in response, including from April 9. This was stated by US President Donald Trump, reports UNN.
Yesterday, China imposed corresponding tariffs of 34% in addition to its already established record tariffs, non-monetary duties, illegal subsidization of companies, and large-scale long-term currency manipulation, despite my warning that any country that introduces additional tariffs in response to US actions that exceed their already existing long-term tariff abuses against our country will be immediately met with new, significantly higher tariffs that exceed those originally established. Thus, if China does not cancel its 34% increase, which exceeds its already existing long-term trade abuses, by tomorrow, April 8, 2025, the United States will impose additional tariffs against China in the amount of 50%, starting on April 9
He added that all negotiations with China regarding their requests for meetings with the US will be suspended.
Recall
From April 10, China will introduce tariffs of 34% on imports of all goods from the United States. According to reports, this step is part of the response to Trump's introduction of double-digit tariffs on Chinese goods in honor of "Liberation Day." The new tariff corresponds to the "appropriate" US tariff rate of 34% on Chinese exports.
