China Responds To American Tariffs

SHENZHEN, CHINA - APRIL 12: A man walks past the entrance of a logistics storefront named Fanglian International Logistics, which offers FBA (Fulfillment by Amazon) shipping services to the United States, Europe, Canada, and Japan, as seen in large Chinese signage above the shopfront. Additional promotional materials on-site highlight delivery timelines and logos of major logistics brands such as DHL. The store appears to be open with staff and packaging materials visible inside on April 12, 2025 in Shenzhen, China. China has imposed a new round of retaliatory tariffs on U.S. imports, raising duties to 125% in response to the latest escalation by the United States, which increased tariffs on Chinese goods to 145%. The growing trade tensions have further impacted China's export sector, affecting key industries such as logistics, manufacturing, and cross-border e-commerce. The measures are part of Beijing's broader strategy to counter rising economic pressure and defend its trade interests. (Photo by Cheng Xin/Getty Images)
