China accuses US of fentanyl 'blackmail' after tariff threat

|March 01, 2025
BEIJING ACCUSED THE United States on Friday of exerting "tariff pressure and blackmail" after President Donald Trump's latest threat to slap an extra duty of 10% on imports from China, citing a continued flow of fentanyl into the country.
The fresh China tariffs, in addition to a tariff of 10% levied on February 4, coincide with Wednesday's start of China's annual parliamentary meet, a setpiece political event at which Beijing is expected to roll out its 2025 economic priorities.
Washington had "used the fentanyl issue to insist on tariff pressure and blackmail," foreign ministry spokesperson Lin Jian told a daily briefing.
