China has retaliated against the U.S. President Donald Trump’s reciprocal tariffs by raising its levies on U.S. goods to 125% from 84%, Customs Tariff Commission of the State Council said in a statement on Friday.

“If the US continues to impose tariffs on Chinese goods exported to the US, China will ignore it,” it said.
