China has already imposed additional duties of 25% on up to 128 American products including certain nuts and fruits, wine and frozen pork, thus responding to American tariffs on imports of steel and aluminum, as the Asian country’s financial ministry uncovered on Sunday.
China's Ministry of Commerce told that it had its obligations to the World Trade Organization suspended with the aim of diminishing duties on 120 American goods. The duties on those products are going to be raised by an additional 15%.
Besides this, eight other products, such as pork are going to be subject to extra duties of 25%, and with the measures coming into effect on April 2.
China has had to impose the extra duties in the face of strengthening trade tensions between China and the United States, driving worries of a devastating trade feud between the world's two leading economies.
