President Trump warned the additional tariffs would begin on November 1.
Donald Trump has announced the US will impose an additional 100% tariff on China imports, accusing it of taking an „extraordinarily aggressive position“ on trade.
In a post to his Truth Social platform on Friday, the US president said Beijing had sent an „extremely hostile letter to the world“ and imposed „large-scale export controls on virtually every product they make“.
Mr Trump, who warned the additional tariffs would start on 1 November, said the US would also impose export controls on any and all critical software to China.
