According to the embassy, raising tariffs to whichever percentage does not in anyway make economic sense.
The Chinese Embassy also made a bold assertion that what the United States is doing in raising tariffs will go down as a joke in word economic history.
In an X post, the Chinese Embassy wrote:
“Even if the United States imposes even higher tariffs, it would no longer make economic sense and ultimately go down as a joke in world economic history.
Given that it’s already impossible for the Chinese market to accept #US imports at the current tariff level, if the United States imposes further #tariffs on Chinese products, #China will ignore it.
However, should the United States persist in substantially undermining #China’s interests, China will take firm countermeasures and fight to the end.”
