The United States agreed to consultations on March 14, and China will advance subsequent procedures in accordance with WTO rules, ministry spokesperson He Yadong told a routine press briefing.
The spokesperson reiterated China's firm opposition to US ‘unilateral imposition’ of additional tariffs and its stance against the ‘politicisation, weaponisation and instrumentalisation; of economic and trade issues.
China is willing to engage in candid dialogue with the United States based on mutual respect, equality and mutual benefit, the spokesperson was cited as saying by a state-controlled media outlet.
