China Issues Warning to US President Donald Trump Over Tariffs

The Chinese government has issued a new warning to US President Donald Trump, stating that it is ready to fight if the US wants to engage in a tariff war or any other type of war.

“If war is what the U.S. wants, be it a tariff war, a trade war or any other type of war, we’re ready to fight till the end,” the Chinese foreign ministry said in a statement posted on the Elon Musk-owned social media platform X.

The statement also criticized the US for using the “fentanyl issue” as a flimsy excuse to raise US tariffs on Chinese imports, and emphasized that the US is solely responsible for fixing the fentanyl crisis within its own borders.

“Intimidation does not scare us. Bullying does not work on us. Pressuring, coercion or threats are not the right way of dealing with China. Anyone using maximum pressure on China is picking the wrong guy and miscalculating,” a statement from a Chinese foreign ministry spokesperson said.
