Threats and pressure are not the right way to deal with China, a foreign ministry spokesperson said on Monday when asked about U.S. President Donald Trump's "reciprocal tariffs".
The tariffs are "typical unilateral and protectionist bullying", spokesperson Lin Jian told a regular press conference, adding that U.S. tariffs in the name of reciprocity only serve its own interest at the expense of other countries.
