Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Geng Shuang said in a regular press briefing that “China has always emphasized that the only correct way to resolve the China-U.S. trade issue is via talks and consultations held on an equal, sincere and mutually respectful basis. But he criticized that “at this time, everything the United States does does not give the impression of sincerity or goodwill.”
He added the details on retaliation will be released at appropriate time, without giving any further information.
