China Denies U.S. Tariff Negotiations Amid Trade War
China rejected President Trump’s claims of active tariff negotiations, asserting that the U.S. should revoke its unilateral tariffs, which reach 145% on Chinese goods. Beijing characterized any suggestions of progress as baseless and emphasized that meaningful discussions require mutual respect and equal footing. As tensions escalate, each nation has raised tariffs in retaliation, with China implementing economic measures like restricting rare earth exports and calling for the complete cancellation of U.S. tariffs to facilitate dialogue.
