China “deeply regrets” that the United States has increased additional tariffs on US$200 billion worth of Chinese goods from 10% to 25%, a Chinese delegation said in a statement early on May 10, as reported by China’s news agency Xinhua News.
China will have to take necessary countermeasures, said the delegation, which is currently in Washington for the 11th round of China-U.S. high-level economic and trade consultations.
With this round of talks still ongoing, China hopes that the United States can meet China halfway, and that the two sides will make joint efforts to resolve existing problems through cooperation and consultation, the delegation said.
