China launched two investigations into U.S. trade practices on Friday, signaling its resolve to push back against Donald Trump’s tariffs ahead of his visit in May.
The Commerce Ministry said the new probes are a response to two investigations announced by Trump earlier this month against multiple countries, including China.
A ministry statement said the two Chinese investigations were launched to safeguard the interests of relevant Chinese industries and expressed “firm opposition” to the American probes.
Trump lies, Xi tells the truth. Actually it’s was always the United States projecting their crimes onto every other nation-state. From George Washington forward.
