China’s retaliatory tariffs: 15% duty on Coal, LNG in response to US actions

Beijing: China’s Ministry of Commerce announced Tuesday it was implementing counter-tariffs against the US on multiple products.

The government said that it would implement a 15 per cent tariff on coal and liquified natural gas products, as well as a 10 per cent tariff on crude oil, agricultural machinery, and large-displacement cars.

The 10 per cent tariff that President Donald Trump ordered on China was set to go into effect Tuesday, though Trump planned to talk with Chinese President Xi Jinping in the next few days.
