China has announced plans to put tariffs of 25% on USA products worth $16 billion, the latest move in an escalating trade war.

Tensions between the world's two largest economies continue to rise as the White House prepares to impose tariffs on another $16 billion of goods from China this month and as Beijing plans to retaliate. First announced June 10, this list of products initially was subject to 10% tariffs, but last week, the Trump Administration confirmed it has raised this retaliatory measure to 25%. "We have been very clear about the specific changes China should undertake".
