1
Recently we Reportedhow China reacted to the start of a new phase of a trade war with the United States. And now, in Washington they have already prepared another blow to Beijing. This time, the American attack, in the form of raising duties to 25%, will affect all Chinese exports, i.e. all goods totaling $ 300 billion



This was announced on May 13, 2019 from the office of the US Trade Representative. Last time, on May 10, 2019, an increase in duties (by 10-25%) affected Chinese goods worth $ 200 billion. The list contains everything from children's clothes and toys to phones and laptops.

- Logically, Bloomberg agency notes.

It should be recalled that on May 11, 2019, the U.S. trade representative, Robert Laitheiser, announced that the process of increasing duties on all remaining imports from China was launched by order of U.S. President Donald Trump. At the same time, the owner of the White House has already announced that he intends to meet with Chinese leader Xi Jinping at the upcoming G20 summit in Japan, which will be held on June 28-29, 2019.

What will China respond to the next proposal of overseas "partners" to "cooperation", we will soon find out. There is no doubt that this answer will be no less stringent than the last time. After all, Beijing has already increased duties on more than 5 thousand goods from the United States in the amount of $ 60 billion, but this is only part of American products supplied to the Celestial Empire.
