China warns the US it will defend national interests on trade

"The Chinese recognize that everyone has a lot to learn if the USA and China move into a trade war", said Stratford, who now is managing partner at law firm Covington & Burling's Beijing office.

Han did not mention the United States or President Donald Trump by name, whose announcement of stiff tariffs on imported Chinese steel and aluminum was answered with tariffs and duties on a list of USA imports.

In his televised address, Trump used cars as an example of China's unfairness by citing a 25 percent tariff on US vehicles sold in China compared with only 2.5 percent on Chinese-made cars coming in. That continued Thursday, after U.S. Trade Representative Robert Lighthizer said the tariffs won't apply to the European Union, Canada, Mexico, Argentina, Brazil and Australia.

"Certain people from United States obviously misjudged the situation and little bit arrogant and totally underestimated Chinas resolve and capability to protect its interests as well as the cost United States has to pay for its reckless action", she said replying to a volley of questions.

Total U.S. pork exports to China were worth $1.16 billion.

American industry, agriculture in particular, as well as members of the president's own Republican party have voiced strident opposition to his recent trade moves - but the latest actions against China did receive some support on Capitol Hill.

China appears to be breaking WTO rules by denying foreign patent holders, including United States companies, basic patent rights to stop a Chinese entity from using the technology after a licensing contract ends, the USTR said. But officials say they are determined to press ahead with what one called "a long-overdue attempt to rectify what for a very, very long time has been a very imbalanced commercial relationship". "Washington needs to be taught a real lesson and such a lesson can only be taught by China, the world's second-largest economy", Global Times said in an editorial.

Should tariffs be levied on tech products and parts, most companies directly hit by increased prices could handle the changes, analysts say.

US President Donald Trump signs trade sanctions against China on March 22, 2018, in the Diplomatic Reception Room of the White House in Washington, DC, on March 22, 2018.

The value of goods affected could reach up to $60 billion, Trump told reporters.

"I don't think local governments in the United States and President Trump hope to see U.S. workers losing their jobs", Sun Yongcai, general manager at Chinese railway firm CRRS Corp, which has two USA production plants, said at the forum.

The decision comes after President Trump said earlier this month that the USA will impose new tariffs on imports of steel and aluminium separately. It held $1.17 trillion in Treasuries as of January, or about 19 percent of all foreign holdings of USA government securities.

Amazon could find itself having to pay 1% or 2% more for products made in China to sell to its massive shopping audience, said Daniel Ives, chief strategy officer and head of technology research at GBH Insights.

Their fears eased when the administration said some countries will be exempt from the tariffs.

From hog producers in Iowa to apple growers in Washington state and winemakers in California, farmers expressed deep disappointment Friday over being put in the middle of a potential trade war with China by the president many of them helped elect.

"A trade war serves the interests of none". The U.S. accounted for 18.4 percent of Chinese exports in 2016, down from 21 percent in 2006.

It will also "give equal protection to property rights of all ownership types by law", and strengthen protection of intellectual property rights, said He, adding that China would better integrate its financial sector and real economy.
