U.S. Violated Trade Rules With Tariffs on China, WTO Says
[gCaptain]The World Trade Organization undercut the main justification for President Donald Trump’s trade war against China, saying that American tariffs on Chinese goods violate international rules.
A panel of three WTO trade experts on Tuesday said the U.S. broke global regulations when it imposed tariffs on Chinese goods in 2018. Washington has imposed levies on $400 billion in Chinese exports.
The panel said in its report “that the United States had not met its burden of demonstrating that the measures are provisionally justified.”
