In the case of 50% tariffs imposed on India by the US, China has come openly in support of India. China has given a befitting reply on Thursday. Chinese Ambassador to India Xu Feihong said, “America has imposed a 50% tariff on India and threatened to impose more tariffs. China strongly opposed it. The silence only promotes bullying. China will stand strongly with India.”
Chinese Ambassador to India, Shoo Faihong, termed America as “Dhoniya” and said that the US has been taking advantage of free trade for a long time, but now it has been using tariffs as a bargain tact. He said that America has imposed a tariff of up to 50% on India and China strongly opposed this step. He further said that keeping silent will give further boost to Dhoniya and he stressed that China will stand firmly with India.
