US President Donald Trump just can't seem to stay out of the headlines. After imposing tariffs on various countries' products and boasting about deserving a Nobel 'Peace' Prize, he has now announced, imposing an additional 100 percent tariff on China. The person in question is again Donald J. Trump.
A large section of the world's political experts is asking- Is Trump's revenge-taking never going to stop? The US President continues making one decision after another. China is repeatedly targeted. The latest example of this is imposing an additional 100 percent import tariff on Chinese products.
In response to this, China said on Sunday that Trump and Trump's decisions are all two-faced, "double standard."
Since Saturday's imposition of additional tariffs on Chinese products by Trump, there was attention on how China would react and the reaction came on Sunday.
A spokesperson of China's Commerce Ministry said in a statement that the United States, Trump, their activities, decisions are all actually double standard. The US President is practicing double standards. At the same time, Xi Jinping's country has threatened to take retaliatory measures against America.
On this day, China's Commerce Ministry said in their statement that Trump's this decision will deal a severe blow to China's interests. Not only that, the environment for discussions on trade and economic matters between the two countries will be destroyed. Taking Trump to task in the statement, it was further said that America is a classic example of double standards. China does not want to get involved in any conflict. But that doesn't mean such an impression should be created that Beijing is afraid to fight. If necessary, we will also take retaliatory measures.
It may be noted that as a result of imposing an additional 100 percent tariff on China, the total tariff amount will reach 140 percent from November 1. However, the Trump administration may advance the date of tariff implementation.
The White House warned, "If China wants to take any aggressive steps against America, then new tariffs may be imposed from October itself."
Since the economic and commercial discussions between the US and China in Madrid, Spain, America has imposed multiple sanctions on China. China has started export controls on various institutions.
What is the reason behind Trump's this decision?
It has been learned that China was trying to establish its control over rare mineral exports. Trump's this decision against China is in the wake of this. Earlier, a report in the media had claimed that China had written letters to many countries including India seeking assurance that those countries would not send rare minerals to America. Trump has described China's this step as "unprecedented aggression" and "moral crime."
