The Chinese Ministry of Commerce confirmed at a recent press briefing that it continues to maintain working-level communication with its U.S. counterparts. Spokesperson He Yongqian emphasized that this open channel of dialogue is key to addressing economic differences and building mutual trust.
China remains open to engaging in economic and trade consultations. The ministry urged the U.S. to end its maximum pressure tactics and coercive measures, citing the old adage, "It is the doer of the deed who must undo it." 🗣️
Amid rising tensions—after the U.S. raised tariffs on Chinese imports to levels as high as 245%—China has responded by matching these moves, raising additional tariffs on U.S. products to 125% and stating that further increases would be economically unsound.
This proactive stance underscores a call for fairness and equal dialogue, much like a plot twist in a popular film where heroes stand up for what is right. The message is clear: both sides must work together to create a balanced economic relationship. 🌐
