Donald Trump said he was planning to strike goods from China with an additional 10% increase in prices, the US president’s last salvo regularly degenerating commercial fighting.
Imports from China are already faced at rates of at least 10%, after a Trump prescription that came into force earlier this month.
Trump also said that he intended to move forward with a taxed tax of 25% on imports from Canada and Mexico, which should come into force on March 4.
The American president had previously announced the 25% obligation on the neighbors of the country, but he suspended them at the last moment after the countries agreed to increase the financing of border security and to speak more of how to combat drug trafficking.
China, Mexico and Canada are the three best American business partners.
Canada and Mexico have said they would impose reprisal prices in the United States if the White House continued the proposal.
On social networks, Trump wrote that he had not thought that enough measures had been taken,
“Drugs are still flocking to our country in Mexico and Canada at very high and unacceptable levels,” he wrote, adding that a “large percentage” of drugs has been made in China.
