At a routine press conference on the 4th, a spokesperson for the Ministry of Commerce responded to a question about the U.S. proposing to impose tariffs on so-called forced labor economies, stating that China’s position on the Section 301 investigation has been consistent. China opposes all forms of unilateral restrictive measures, including a series of trade restrictions imposed on China under the pretext of “forced labor.” China has repeatedly expressed its serious stance on this matter. We urge the U.S. to work with China in the same direction to jointly maintain the stability of China-U.S. economic and trade relations.
