Multiple Chinese chambers of commerce resolutely oppose U.S. "reciprocal tariffs"

Multiple Chinese chambers of commerce on Saturday stated their firm opposition to the unilateral imposition of "reciprocal tariffs" by the United States.

They also expressed strong support for the Chinese government in taking all necessary countermeasures, according to statements from the chambers of commerce for import and export in various sectors, including those related to textiles, foodstuffs, machinery and electronics, light industrial goods, medicines and health products, as well as metals, minerals and chemicals.

Following the U.S. move to slap "reciprocal tariffs" on all its trading partners, China announced that it will impose an additional 34-percent tariff on all products imported from the United States starting from April 10. ■
