Donald Trump warned on Sunday that no country is “drawn” in front of his customs offensive, “especially not China”, which he again attacked exemptions on electronic products announced by the United States.

No one is drawn (…), especially not China which, by far, treats us the mostthundered the republican president on his network Truth Social.

Donald Trump’s warnings occurs the day after an exemption from surcharge-up to 145 % for China-granted by American authorities on electronic products, smartphones and computers in mind, as well as on semiconductors.

We look at semiconductors and the entire electronic product supply chainwarned Donald Trump.

Earlier during the day, its commercial secretary, Howard Lungick, had already expressed himself in this direction by evoking specific sectoral customs duties to come on semiconductors, Probably in a month or two.

The president will present his (customs) policy on semiconductors and pharmaceutical products. We cannot rest on China for fundamental things we need. Our drugs and semiconductors must be produced in America ”. A quote fromHoward Lungick, in an ABC channel interview

These American announcements are the opposite of what China is claiming, engaged in a brutal trade war with the United States which panics the financial markets with actions that play the roller coaster, gold prices at the highest and the US debt market.

If the Chinese Ministry of Commerce has recognized the small step done by Washington with its softened position on electronic products, We urge the United States to (…) take a big step to correct its mistakes, completely cancel the poor practice of reciprocal customs duties and return to the right of mutual respectsaid a spokesperson on a statement on Sunday.
