On April 2, 2025, the U.S. government announced the imposition of a 34% "reciprocal tariff" on Chinese imports, a move that has drawn sharp criticism from various sectors. This action is seen as a violation of international trade rules and a significant infringement on China's legitimate rights and interests. The Chinese Ministry of Commerce has stated that this tariff will not only fail to yield economic benefits for the United States but will also have serious negative repercussions on global supply chains and industrial networks.

The China Chamber of Commerce for Import and Export of Foodstuffs and Native Produce has expressed strong opposition to the U.S. government's protectionist measures. The organization firmly supports the Chinese government's response to safeguard national interests and protect the rights of Chinese enterprises. Industry representatives are calling for a united front to address the challenges posed by these tariffs, emphasizing the need for constructive dialogue and cooperation to promote fair trade practices. The international community is urged to recognize the broader implications of such unilateral actions on the global economy.
