The Chinese authorities are ready to coordinate with the European Union and jointly uphold the rules of fair international trade in response to the tariff pressure from US President Donald Trump. This was stated by the official representative of the Chinese Foreign Ministry Lin Jian.
“As a responsible major power, China has taken and will continue to take resolute measures to safeguard its legitimate interests“, he said at a regular briefing, answering a journalist's question about the coordination of positions between China and the EU in response to US protectionism. "China is ready to cooperate with the international community, including the EU, to jointly safeguard international trade rules, fairness and justice."
As the official specified, Beijing is committed to strengthening openness, mutual benefit and win-win cooperation for all participants in international trade. The US administration's measures to impose high tariffs on imported goods are "a policy of bullying that has caused serious harm to all parties".
