  • LIVE | Trump’s Explosive WAR Warning Goes Viral As US Hits 245% Tariff On Chinese Goods| US Vs China

    China is now facing tariffs of up to 245% on imports to the US in response to its retaliatory tariffs, according to a White House Fact sheet. This action follows China’s directive to its airlines to cease taking further deliveries of Boeing jets, in retaliation to the US imposing 145% tariffs on Chinese goods.“China now faces up to a 245% tariff on imports to the United States as a result of its retaliatory actions,” the White House said, emphasizing the move as part of Trump’s ongoing “America First Trade Policy.”

    The administration has stated that China is intentionally limiting access to crucial high-tech materials such as gallium, germanium, and antimony – essential elements for the military, aerospace, and semiconductor sectors.

    Besides, China has recently halted exports of six heavy rare earth metals and rare earth magnets, further constricting the availability of components vital to global supply chains.

    According to the statement, a few months back, China implemented a ban on the export of gallium, germanium, antimony, along with other crucial high-tech materials that could be utilized for military purposes to the United States.
