China: "There Are No Winners in a Trade War"

In response to a U.S. court's decision to halt President Donald Trump's reciprocal tariffs, China has stated that these tariffs should be completely abolished.


He Yungchen, spokesperson for the Ministry of Commerce of China, said at a briefing on May 29, "We urge the United States to face the rational voices of the international community and various sectors at home, and to fully withdraw its wrongful practice of imposing unilateral tariffs."

He went on to criticize, "Since the United States introduced unilateral tariff measures, not only have they failed to resolve any of its own issues, but they have also seriously undermined the international economic and trade order, severely disrupted business operations and consumer life, and ultimately harmed others without benefiting itself."


He Yungchen emphasized, "China has consistently maintained that there are no winners in a trade war and that there is no way out in protectionism."



Previously, the U.S. Court of International Trade ruled that President Trump had exceeded his authority by imposing reciprocal tariffs on various countries, declaring these actions invalid.
