Heads up! 🚨 China just voiced strong opposition after news that Mexico plans to slap up to 50% tariffs on cars and other goods from the Chinese mainland and several other Asian countries.
According to Foreign Ministry spokesperson Lin Jian, China has always backed inclusive globalization and is against unilateralism, protectionism, or discriminatory measures. 💡
He emphasized that the Chinese mainland firmly rejects any restrictions imposed under external pressure that undermine its legitimate rights, and it's ready to take steps to safeguard its interests. ✊
Lin also pointed out that both China and Mexico are important members of the Global South, with mutually beneficial trade at the heart of their economic ties. He hopes both sides can team up to boost global economic recovery and trade growth. 🌐📈
