China issues scathing response to Trump's 145% tariffs with major new blow to the country

China has issued an immediate response to Donald Trump's extraordinary 145 percent tariff on Chinese goods, with the trade war not seeing an end in sight.

Ever since President Trump returned to the White House for a second term in January, it has been tariffs, tariffs and more tariffs.

With April 2 branded 'Liberation Day' for the US, Trump unveiled a series of tariffs affecting countries across the globe, with China one of the worst hit.

China has ended up with a whopping 145 percent tariff 'effective immediately' after it tried to hit back with its own retaliatory tariffs.

"At some point, hopefully in the near future, China will realize that the days of ripping off the U.S.A., and other Countries, is no longer sustainable or acceptable," Trump wrote on Truth Social.

China's commerce ministry has since warned the US to 'take a big step back to correct its mistakes' and 'return to the right path of mutual respect'.

And on April 11, Trump's administration seemingly did take a step back, announcing smartphones, computers and other certain products would be exempt from the hiked tariffs, including Chinese goods.

But on Sunday (April 13), US Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick told ABC News that the exemptions may only be temporary and a 'semiconductor tariff' could be announced soon instead.

China has since hit back with a 125 percent tariff on US-manufactured goods, while it's also banned its country's airlines from completing any jet orders from US-based manufacturer Boeing.

All existing orders have been halted, while Chinese airlines have also been ordered to not buy any aircraft parts from Boeing.

The Telegraph reports the Chinese government are working with airlines who lease Boeing jets to assist on potential higher costs.

UNILAD has reached out to Boeing for comment.

While the tariffs continue to cause chaos across the globe, Trump doesn't appear to have any plans on reversing his decisions.

The POTUS resolved on Truth Social: "The Golden Age of America, which includes the upcoming Tax and Regulation Cuts, a substantial amount of which was just approved by the House and Senate, will mean more and better paying Jobs, making products in our Nation, and treating other Countries, in particular China, the same way they have treated us.

"The bottom line is that our Country will be bigger, better, and stronger than ever before. We will, MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!"
