Effective March 10, these tariffs can reach up to 15% and target major American exports such as soybeans and corn. This move highlights China's defiance amid a deepening trade conflict and comes at a time when its economy faces challenges, including deflation and high unemployment. Ongoing tensions suggest difficult negotiations ahead between the world's two largest economies.
