China MOFCOM announced on Wednesday afternoon that, China is to impose an additional 25% tariff on 106 products originated from US, including soybeans, vehicles, aircrafts, beef, chemicals, cigarettes, corn products, wheat, orange juice, cotton, whisky and etc..
The retaliatory measures comes after the USTR published a list of about 1,300 Chinese products it plans to hit with a 25% tariff.
The products targeted by the tariff measures were worth $50bn in 2017.
