Xi Jinping warns US of any type of war as Donald Trump’s tariffs hit China; Beijing vows to fight to the end amid escalating trade war

Chinese Premier Xi Jinping has recently claimed that China is ready for a trade war with the United States, and this statement comes right around the time when Donald Trump is scheduled to impose tariffs on goods manufactured by the Asian country, that are shipped overseas to the US, according to a Daily Mail UK report.

Jinping's threat against US

Xi Jinping has claimed that China is ready for 'any kind of war' with the United States for that matter, which is an inclination that it is readying itself to face incoming American aggression, just not limited to the imposing of tariffs by Donald Trump. The new US President, during his address to Congress, revealed that further tariffs on China would follow on April 2, that includes the 'reciprocal tariffs' along with other non-tariff actions aimed at cancelling out any advantages other countries face which the United States is not provided in return.

In response to this action by Donald Trump, China lashed out saying that if it is trade war that the US wants with China, then the Asian country is ready to take them on for any other form of war as well, a statement that has begun brewing up controversies soon after, as per reports.
