Trump's tariff stance on China has not softened

PANews reported on April 24 that according to CCTV News citing The Wall Street Journal on the 23rd, senior U.S. officials revealed that the Trump administration is considering multiple options. The first option involves potentially reducing tariff rates on Chinese goods to approximately 50%-65%. The second option, referred to as the "tiered approach", would categorize imported Chinese goods into two groups: those deemed "not posing a threat to U.S. national security" and those considered "strategically significant to U.S. national interests". U.S. media reported that under this "tiered approach", the first category of goods would be subject to a 35% tariff, while the second category would face tariff rates of at least 100%. White House Press Secretary Levitt stated that Trump's stance on tariffs against China "has not softened".
