US President Donald Trump made striking statements regarding the ongoing trade war with China during a press conference held at the White House.
"IF THEY DO NOT REACH AN AGREEMENT WITH US, THEY WILL PAY HEAVY PRICES"
Once again threatening Beijing with a decision to impose a 100% additional tariff, Trump stated, "If China threatens us with rare earth elements, they will have to pay a 150% tariff. If they do not reach an agreement with us, China will pay heavy prices."
TRUMP'S DECISION ON A 100% ADDITIONAL TARIFF ON CHINA
In a recent statement, Trump announced that starting from November 1, they would impose a 100% additional tariff on top of the tariff currently paid to China and would implement export controls on all critical software.
The US President noted that China had sent an extremely "hostile" letter indicating that they would implement comprehensive export controls on almost all products they produce, even some products that are not of their own production, starting from November 1.
Trump stated that this affects all countries without exception and is a plan designed years ago, describing it as "something absolutely unheard of in international trade and a moral disgrace in relations with other countries."
"WE WILL IMPLEMENT EXPORT CONTROLS ON ALL CRITICAL SOFTWARE"
Trump stated: "In light of China's unprecedented behavior and speaking solely on behalf of the US, not on behalf of other countries facing similar threats, starting from November 1 (or earlier depending on other measures or changes China may take), the US will impose a 100% tariff on top of the tariff currently paid to China. Additionally, we will implement export controls on all critical software on November 1."
