On April 4, China fired 11 arrows at once, resolutely countering the reciprocal "tariffs" imposed by the United States. Among them, China announced that it would impose a 34% tariff on all imported goods originating from the United States. "34%" and "all" have triggered widespread discussion in the public opinion field. Mr. Tan answered a few of the most concerned questions:
1. Why is the 34% tariff imposed on the United States at one time? Cui Fan, a professor at the University of International Business and Economics, said that releasing our countermeasures at such a speed and amplitude means that China has made sufficient preparations in advance and has sufficient tools and measures to counter the United States. At the same time, our entire economic and trade field is also more resilient.
2. What information has been released by the world's first counter-equality tariffs? The unprecedented practice of imposing tariffs on trading partners around the world reflects the U.S. government's attempt to subvert the global free trade system with the WTO as its core. China's resolute and rapid countermeasures is a resolute containment of this trend and a clear attitude to the world. China will resolutely counter unilateral bullying that violates international rules without hesitation.
