The Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs held a briefing on Chinese and foreign media on the 11th. In answering questions related to the United States' abuse of tariffs, Miao Deyu, Assistant Foreign Minister, said that the United States uses tariffs as a weapon to implement extreme pressure and seek personal gain. This is a typical unilateralism, protectionism and economic bullying, and it is to sacrifice the legitimate interests of countries around the world and serve the hegemony and private interests of the United States.
China has always firmly opposed the US's abuse of so-called "reciprocal tariffs" and has taken strong legal measures to carry out a resolute struggle. China will resolutely safeguard its own development interests, defend international fairness and justice, and safeguard international economic and trade order. We are willing to strengthen communication and coordination with Latin American countries, work together to safeguard multilateralism and maintain the multilateral trading system.
