In the middle of the Sino -American clash on trade, the warning of the Ministry of Commerce has matured due to the efforts of the administration of President Donald Trump to use negotiations on the duties to put pressure on American partners so that they limit their relations with China. The Tycoon has frozen the main tariff increases on other countries for 90 days, maintaining operational those paid by Chinese imports, brought to 145%. “China firmly opposes any part that reaches an agreement at the expense of its interests. If this happens, China would not accept it and resolutely adopt mutual countermeasures”, specified the note of the Ministry, citing the risks of an international trade returned to the “Jungle Law”. China is willing to collaborate with all parties and to “defend equity and international justice”, while describing the actions of the United States as “abuse of duties” and “unilateral bullying”. Several countries are now engaged in negotiations with the United States to reduce duties: “Confidentially will not bring peace and the compromise will not be respected – has increased the note of the Chinese Ministry of Commerce -.
To pursue their temporary selfish interests at the expense of the interests of others is like looking for the skin of a tiger “.
This approach, he warned, “in the end will fail from both sides” and will damage all the others. Thursday Trump said the US were in negotiations with China on the duties and of being confident of being able to reach an agreement to close the clash in progress. Beijing, ready to fight a commercial war “until the end”, did not confirm the negotiations and, despite having hoped for the dialogue, condemned both “unilateralism” and “protectionism” by the United States.
