China's Tariff Retaliation

China has announced a significant 34 percent tariff on all U.S. goods in response to tariffs imposed by the Trump administration, signaling a heated escalation in U.S.-China trade tensions. This retaliation is viewed as the start of a major trade war, reminiscent of the protectionist measures from the 1930s that had devastating economic repercussions.
