People’s Daily commentary encourages nation to ‘weather storms’, assures country is prepared to counter Trump’s tariffs with ‘extraordinary’ measures.
China has called on the nation to “weather storms together” amid an escalating trade war with the “capricious” Trump administration after the US president warned that Beijing had miscalculated in striking back at his new tariffs.
People’s Daily, the Communist Party’s official newspaper, published a front-page commentary on Monday that explained the rationale behind the Chinese government’s decision to strike back at US President Donald Trump’s “reciprocal tariffs”.
