# China has announced a new 125-percent tariff on US imports. It’s in keeping with the pattern emerging in this trade war, where China has been matching the tariff increases set by the US. China’s President Xi Jinping called on the EU to join Beijing in opposing “bullying” from the US on tariffs, as China faces a 145-percent levy on some of its goods imported into the US. Donald Trump is still hoping to secure a deal with Beijing that’s good for both countries.
