US-China Tariff War: China asked India on Tuesday to join the fight against what it described as the "US abuse of tariffs" amid escalating trade tensions with Washington. This came after President Donald Trump announced a sharp hike that would raise cumulative taxes on Chinese goods to 104%. Speaking out against the U.S. tariffs, Yu Jing, the spokesperson for China's embassy in India, claimed that China's innovation, strong manufacturing base, and consistent economic growth had benefited the rest of the globe.
