According to him, the two sides reached a basic framework consensus on resolving issues related to the TikTok social network through cooperation, reducing investment barriers and promoting relevant trade and economic cooperation.

BEIJING, Sept. 15 (Xinhua) — China firmly opposes the U.S. demand that the Group of Seven (G7) and North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) impose tariffs of 50 percent to 100 percent on China over its purchase of Russian oil, an official spokesman for the Chinese Ministry of Commerce said on Monday.

In response to a media question, the official representative pointed out that the Chinese side has consistently opposed trade and economic restrictions against China under the pretext of so-called Russia-related issues.

The US attempt to force relevant parties to impose “secondary customs duties” on China due to purchases of Russian oil is a typical example of unilateral bullying and economic coercion, the Ministry of Commerce representative emphasized.

According to him, this step seriously violates the consensus reached during the telephone conversation between the heads of the two states and could deal a significant blow to world trade and undermine the stability of production and distribution chains.

China firmly opposes this and will take all necessary measures to protect its legitimate rights and interests if any party's actions harm the interests of the PRC, the official representative promised.

He expressed hope that the United States will be careful in words and prudent in actions, move towards the Chinese side, and properly resolve trade differences through equal dialogue and consultation.

The spokesperson also called on relevant parties to firmly adhere to principles and work with China to safeguard the international trade order and the stability of global industrial and supply chains. –0–
