中國報復美國加徵2000億商品關稅

China says it has no choice but to retaliate to U.S. President Donald Trump's 10 percent tariffs on $200 billion in Chinese goods, risking a further escalation of trade tensions between the world’s two biggest economies.

On Tuesday, China announced a tariff hike on $60 billion of American products.

In a brief statement posted online Tuesday, China’s Commerce Ministry said, "To protect its legitimate rights and interests and order in international free trade, China is left with no choice but to retaliate simultaneously."

On Monday, President Trump warned, in a statement announcing his move, if China retaliates against U.S. farmers or other industries, Washington “will immediately pursue phase three, which is tariffs on approximately $267 billion in additional imports."

The additional $267 billion in tariffs is expected to cover all Chinese imports to the United States.

The $200 billion in U.S. tariffs go into effect in less than a week, on September 24, leaving the two sides little time to sit down.中國表示，在美國特朗普政府對價值2000億美元的中國商品加徵10％關稅之後，中國除了採取報復行動別無選擇。這有可能導致世界兩大經濟體之間的貿易緊張局勢進一步升級。

星期二，中國宣佈對約600億美元的美國商品加徵關稅。

中國商務部週二在網上公佈的一份簡短公告稱:“中國決定對美國原產的約600億美元商品實施加徵關稅”。公告說：“爲捍衛國際自由貿易和自身合法權益，中方不得不同步實施報復性措施。”

特朗普總統星期一在一份聲明中宣佈，如果中國對美國農民或其他行業進行報復，華盛頓“將立即進入第三階段，即再對約2670億美元的中國進口商品施加關稅。”

這額外2670億美元的商品預計將涵蓋所有中國對美國的進口。

美國對2000億美元中國商品加徵關稅的措施將在9月24日的不到一週內生效，幾乎沒有上方坐下來談判的時間。
