New Tariffs on Chinese Goods Could Affect US Ports
The list will be made public in 15 days, and the tariffs would take effect after a period of public comment.
"The One-China policy is inherently ambiguous", Bolton said.
"There is no question that Chinese state-sponsored businesses routinely engage in industrial espionage and steal trade secrets, which harms American companies doing business in China", R Street Trade Policy Counsel Clark Packard said.
Trump's China tariff represent a "seismic shift from an era dating back to Nixon and Kissinger, where we had as a government viewed China in terms of economic engagement", White House trade adviser Peter Navarro told reporters on Thursday.
Still, it is unclear under what terms China and the US are willing to talk, with Beijing adamant that the USA tariffs constitute a unilateral move that it rejects. They would be hit with a 15 percent tariff increase, mirroring the USA duty hike of 15 percent on aluminum. Trump has accused China of stealing US firms' intellectual property and US Trade Representative Robert Lighthizer is investigating the matter.
As well as pork and aluminum, China's Ministry of Commerce said it could impose import tariffs on US goods including fruit, nuts, wine and steel pipes.
The most sensible strategy to protect the country's intellectual property isn't to keep talented foreign students out, but to encourage them to stay in the US and put their knowledge to use - by joining the workforce or starting a business.

"China has already prepared, and has the strength, to defend its national interests", said Liu He, a close aide to President Xi Jinping, in a telephone call with U.S. Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin on Saturday, according to a report by the official Xinhua News Agency.
China unveiled tariffs on $3 billion of USA imports in response to steel and aluminum duties ordered by Trump earlier this month and indicated it is considering further steps, including possibly scaling back purchases of Treasuries.
American industry, and United States agriculture in particular, as well as members of the president's own Republican party have voiced strident opposition to Trump's recent trade moves.
In a separate statement, the Chinese commerce ministry unveiled plans to levy duties on up to $3 billion of USA imports in response to the steel and aluminium tariffs, which will go into effect on Friday.
"We also have the confidence and the capacity to safeguard our legitimate and legal interests, whatever the circumstances", Hua said. We've been dealing with it very seriously. "The greater risk comes to China's long-term development trajectory, if the rise of economic nationalism impedes their march up the value chain". Overall, the nation's farmers shipped almost $20bn of goods to China in 2017, Reuters reported.
Senior White House economic advisor Everett Eissenstat said the new import duties would target industrial sectors where "China has sought to acquire an advantage through the unfair acquisition or forced technology transfer from U.S. companies".
The gains to the USA economy aren't limited to Silicon Valley.
