The United States has announced a 10% tariff on Chinese goods

On February 2nd, US President Trump signed an executive order on the 1st to impose a 10% tariff on goods imported from China. This latest trade protection measure of the United States has been widely opposed by the international community and the United States. The White House said on the same day that for all goods imported from China, the United States will impose a 10% tariff on the basis of existing tariffs. Trump said that this is in line with the "protectionist measures" he supports. A spokesperson for the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs previously said that China has stated its position many times and always believes that there is no winner in trade wars and tariff wars. China has always firmly safeguarded its national interests. A spokesperson for the Chinese Ministry of Commerce also previously said that China's position on the tariff issue is consistent. Tariff measures are not good for both China and the United States, nor are they good for the whole world.
