Original title: the latest news of Sino US trade war: what measures has China taken to deal with the US tariff increase to 25%?

After the tariff on US $200 billion of Chinese products exported to the US was raised from 10% to 25%, the US side further threatened to start the relevant procedures of levying 25% tax on the remaining US $325 billion of Chinese products exported to the US, and will announce the list on the 13th. At the foreign ministry's regular press conference on the 13th, a reporter asked about China's position and measures.

Foreign Ministry spokesman Geng Shuang said that we have said many times that the imposition of tariffs will not solve any problems. China will never give in to external pressure. We are determined to be able to safeguard our legitimate and legitimate rights and interests.

The latest progress of Sino US trade war negotiations: when will enterprises get tariff exemption?

On May 5, US President Donald Trump tweeted that from May 10, the US will adjust the tariff rate on US $200 billion worth of Chinese goods, from the original 10% to 25%. In addition, in the future, the United States may impose a 25% tariff on $325 billion worth of Chinese goods.

Earlier this year, the General Administration of Customs announced that China's exports to the United States will reach 3.16 trillion yuan (478.42 billion US dollars) in 2018. According to the amount announced by trump on his twitter, there will be a 25% tariff on 525 billion US dollars of Chinese goods.

Since the fermentation of Sino US trade disputes, the number of consultations between China and the United States has reached as many as 10 rounds. According to the news released earlier, there will be an 11th round of consultations between China and the United States. However, after several rounds of consultations, the negotiations between China and the United States are still inconclusive. The outside world believes that Trump's trouble on his twitter again at this time is intended to put pressure on the next negotiation.

According to trump's tariff policy, the United States levies a high tariff of 25% on the Chinese made automatic driving electronic control system ECU (car brain), which is used in model 3, s, X and other best-selling models. As a result, Tesla's request for a 25% tariff exemption on computer parts used in model 3 models made in China was rejected by U.S. trade officials.

According to the data, the U.S. trade representative has received nearly 13000 similar tariff exemption requests, of which 5311 have been rejected. Among them, 1166 rejection reasons are related to made in China 2025. And the reason for these applicants is also consistent with Tesla, that is, 'there is no alternative product in the United States.

Even if China and the United States reach a trade agreement in the next few weeks, enterprises will not be able to get tariff exemption in the next few months or years. According to people familiar with the matter, some tariffs, especially those for industries involved in the made in China 2025 plan, will continue to exist as part of the law enforcement mechanism.

Vice President Mike & middot; Burns said on Friday that the way tariffs are removed will become part of the mechanism, designed to ensure that China fulfils its obligations under any agreement.
