CHINA WARNS COUNTRIES APPEASING THE US IN TRADE TALKS

China has warned countries against appeasing the US in trade talks over President Donald Trump’s tariffs.

Chinese commerce ministry spokesperson made these comments in response that Washington  has plans to put pressure on governments to restrict trade with Beijing in exchange for exemptions to US import taxes.

The Trump administration has started talks with trading partners over tariffs, with a Japanese delegation visiting Washington last week and South Korea is set to start negotiations this week.

Trump has imposed hefty tariffs on Chinese imports, while other countries have also been hit with levies on their goods.
