[Ministry of Commerce Responds to U.S. Considering an Additional 7.5% Tariff on China] Ministry of Commerce spokesperson Huang Ling, in response to a question regarding the U.S. government's consideration of imposing an additional 7.5% tariff on goods imported from China, stated that the U.S., citing 'overcapacity' as a reason, has launched a Section 301 investigation against 16 economies, including China. This act of politicizing economic and trade issues is a typical example of unilateralism and protectionism, which China firmly opposes. We will continue to closely monitor and comprehensively assess the subsequent actions of the U.S. and reserve the right to take all necessary measures. (Xinhua News Agency)
