Trump has linked the samples to irregular immigration and cross-border flows of the opioid fentanyl, which resulted in an increase in overdose death in the United States
Beijing has rejected, saying: “China hopes that the American part will examine objectively and rationally and take care of its own fentanyl problem and other problems, rather than threatening other countries by means of prices each turn. “”
China’s declaration is much less specific than the immediate responses of Mexico and Canada, whose leaders ordered countermeasures on Saturday. Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said Ottawa would impose 25% prices on goods worth $ 21 billion from Tuesday and later this month.
Germany, which is in Trump’s pricing threat line against Europe, was trying to be non -conflicting after measures against other American business partners.
“We must not react to the first panic decisions, but rather to see them as the start of negotiations and not the end,” the German finance minister Jörg Kukies said on Sunday during a trip to the Gulf region, reported Frankfurter Allgemeine.
Meanwhile, Japan has expressed fears about the consequences of Trump’s prices for the world economy. The Minister of Finance, Katsunobu Kato, said on Japanese television that “we are deeply concerned about the way these prices could affect the global economy … Japan must examine these policies and their effects, and take the appropriate measures.”
