China holds a consistent position on trade tensions with the US and believes dialogue and negotiations based on equality and mutual respect are the only solutions, China's Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MOFA) said on Monday.
"If the US announces new tariffs on Chinese goods, China will have to take necessary countermeasures to defend its interests," Geng Shuang, spokesperson of the MOFA said at a media briefing when asked about a possible further tariff increase from the US.
