美中對彼此出口產品互徵關稅

China said Friday it was "forced to take a necessary counterattack" and responded in kind to the United States after Washington placed tariffs on 800 Chinese import products valued at $34 billion.

China said it applied retaliatory tariffs on 545 U.S. items, also worth $34 billion, "including agricultural products, vehicles and aquatic products," China's state-run Xinhua News Agency reported.

Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Lu Kang said China is "completely justified" in its response to the U.S. tariffs, which he said "will disturb the global trade order, cause turbulence on the global market, and hamper world economic recovery," according to Chinese broadcaster CCTV.

Lu warned that consumers and small business would be adversely affected, noting that, "Enterprises and people in the U.S. are also increasingly realizing the great harm ahead."

China's Ministry of Commerce spokesman Gao Feng told reporters Thursday that about $20 billion of the U.S. goods China targeted are backed by foreign investors, including a significant portion from the U.S.中國週五表示，在華盛頓對價值340億美元、800多個類別的中國進口產品開徵新關稅後，中國“不得不被迫做出必要反擊”，對美國進口產品加徵同等力度的關稅。

據中國官方新華社報道，中國稱對545類價值340億美元的美國產品實施報復性關稅，“包括農產品、汽車和水產品”，但是沒有詳細說明。

官方的中央電視臺報道說，中國外交部發言人陸慷說，中國“理所當然”做出反擊，他說美國的關稅“打擊全球貿易秩序、引發全球市場動盪、阻礙全球經濟復甦”。

他還警告說，消費者和小企業將受到不利影響，美國企業和人民也越來越意識到即將受到巨大危害。

中國商務部發言人高峯星期四告訴記者說，中國徵稅的目標產品中包括約200億美元的商品是外資支持的，其中有很大一部分是美國投資。
