China Retaliates Against Trump Tariffs, Exposing Global Economic Fallout
The US imposed 10% tariffs on Chinese goods, prompting immediate retaliation from China, including tariffs on US goods like oil and farm equipment, and export controls on critical minerals. China also initiated an antitrust investigation into Google and added US companies PVH and Illumina to its unreliable entity list. These actions follow earlier US threats of tariffs against Mexico and Canada, which were temporarily delayed after negotiations. The global economic impact remains uncertain, with mixed reactions in financial markets.
