Trump Targets China With Biggest Salvo So Far in Second Term

Rolled out a memorandum telling a key government committee to curb Chinese spending on tech, energy and other strategic American sectors.

The administration also called on Mexican officials to place their own levies on Chinese imports – a move that comes after Chinese firms moved production to the US neighbor to get around duties the Republican enacted in his first term.

The US also proposed fees on the use of commercial ships made in China to counter the nation’s dominance in the production of the vessels.

The changes are needed to protect “the crown jewels of United States technology, food supplies, farmland, minerals, natural resources, ports, and shipping terminals.

China’s $295 billion trade surplus with the US looms large in the new administration’s list of worries.

China says it’s prepared for greater shocks as US tariffs loom

“At this time, I think it is even more important for each of our countries to open up markets more, and for all of our businesses to share their resources more.”

Plans were being made for corporate titans to meet Chinese President Xi Jinping on March 28.

The premier also reiterated a central bank pledge that policymakers will cut interest rates and the reserve requirement ratio when “timely,” and vowed to offer more support when necessary to ensure the economy runs smoothly.

In the coming days, the US is set to complete a review of Beijing’s compliance with the phase-one trade deal struck during Trump’s first term and impose sweeping reciprocal duties globally.

CN Said to Counter U.S. with At Least 6 Measures

U.S. President Donald Trump threatened on 7 April to levy an additional 50% tariff on China.

In response, a spokesperson from China’s Ministry of Commerce stated that countermeasures would be taken and that China would fight to the end.

The self-media account "Niu Tan Qin (literal translation of "牛彈琴")", founded by Liu Hong, deputy editor-in-chief of Xinhua Net, cited the latest sources, revealing that China has prepared at least six countermeasures.

These include considerably raising tariffs on U.S. agricultural products such as soybeans and sorghum, banning imports of U.S.-produced poultry, suspending bilateral fentanyl cooperation, implementing countermeasures in the service trade sector to restrict U.S. companies’ business cooperation, reducing or even banning imports of U.S. films, and investigating the intellectual property profits of U.S. companies in China.
