CCTV News: According to the Ministry of Commerce website, at around 8 pm Eastern Time on February 1, the White House issued a list of facts, announcing an additional 10% tariff on Chinese products imported to the United States on the grounds of fentanyl and other issues. China is strongly dissatisfied with this and firmly opposes it.

The US's unilateral tariff imposition seriously violates WTO rules, which is not only unhelpful to solve its own problems, but also causes damage to normal economic and trade cooperation between China and the United States. China will file a lawsuit with the WTO for the US’s wrong practices and will take corresponding countermeasures to firmly safeguard its rights and interests.

China hopes that the US will view and deal with its own fentanyl and other issues objectively and rationally, rather than threaten other countries with tariffs at will. China urges the US to correct its wrong practices, act in the same way as China, face problems directly, have frank dialogue, strengthen cooperation, and manage differences on the basis of equality, mutual benefit and mutual respect.
