A spokesman for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of China lambasted the US for deciding to impose additional tariffs on all the goods coming from 180-odd countries and regions, at a press conference on April 7.

It is a typical example of unilateralism and economic violence that the US is hell-bent on hegemonic acts on the pretext of "mutuality", makes profits by sacrificing the interests of all the countries and places “America First” above international rules, he said.

He stressed that the US’ random act of levying tariffs is as good as depriving developing countries of their right to development and it will surely be faced with strong opposition of the international community.
