China has stated it is prepared to fight “any type of war” with the U.S., as President Donald Trump increases economic and political pressure on the country. The Chinese Embassy in the U.S. signaled an aggressive stance toward the U.S., saying it is ready to fight till the end.
The remarks come as the U.S. imposes additional tariffs on imports from China, taking the cumulative tariffs to 20%. China has retaliated with its own tariffs on certain U.S. goods and export restrictions, reflecting an attempt to trigger political pressure on Trump from farmers, a key Republican constituency.
