White House threatened China with imposing 245% duties
US President Donald Trump has again threatened China with increasing duties, this time to 245%. This statement was published on the official website of the White House. | According to the source, Trump imposed a 10% duty on all countries and set higher individual tariffs for those with the largest trade deficit with the United States. ● More than 75 countries have approached the White House with proposals for new trade agreements. As a result, the imposition of individual increased tariffs was temporarily suspended, with the exception of China, which responded with similar measures. (Translation: DeepL) (Original)
