Chinese Embassy in U.S.: “We’re Ready to Fight Till the End”
The Chinese Embassy in Washington issued a strong statement amid escalating trade tensions with the U.S., declaring:
“If war is what the U.S. wants, be it a tariff war, a trade war, or any other type of war, we’re ready to fight till the end.”
The statement was posted in response to comments from China’s Foreign Ministry Spokesperson, who condemned the latest U.S. tariffs on Chinese imports and rejected claims linking China to the fentanyl crisis in the U.S.
The Chinese government accuses Washington of using fentanyl as a “flimsy excuse” to justify new tariffs, warning that Beijing will implement countermeasures to protect its interests.
What’s Next?
• China is expected to impose additional tariffs on U.S. goods, potentially impacting agriculture, energy, and manufacturing sectors.
• The dispute raises fears of a broader economic confrontation between the world’s two largest economies.
