China has called out the use of tariffs as political weapons after the U.S. announced steep new levies on Brazilian goods this week. 🇧🇷💥 Foreign Ministry spokesperson Mao Ning stressed Friday that trade policies shouldn’t interfere with sovereign nations’ internal affairs—a clear swipe at Washington’s latest move.
The U.S. plans to impose tariffs of up to 50% on Brazilian imports starting August 1, accusing Brazil of unfair trade practices. But Mao fired back: "Sovereign equality and non-interference are core UN principles" that all countries must respect. 🔥
This clash comes as global trade tensions simmer like a K-drama cliffhanger. 🍿 Will other nations rally behind China’s stance? Analysts say the debate could reshape how economic policies intersect with diplomacy—and young professionals worldwide are watching closely.
