This was told by China's permanent representative to the WTO, Zhang Xiangcheng. He stressed that the duties introduced by Donald Trump threaten the foundations of the organization and the entire world trading system. At the same time in the Middle Kingdom intend to take retaliatory measures. "These are the necessary measures to respond to the emergency situation and justified actions to suppress the spread of trade protectionism," Xiangcheng quoted RIA Novosti as saying..

Beijing responded with a mirror and imposed restrictions on 128 American goods, but in the Middle Kingdom they say that they will lose about $ 60 billion. Analysts are sure that the trade war between the two powers will turn into a global financial catastrophe, similar to the one that covered the planet in 2008.
