Amid escalating trade tensions, China has called on the U.S. to ditch the 'bully playbook' and approach tariff negotiations with fairness. 🔥 Foreign Ministry spokesperson Lin Jian urged Washington to adopt 'equality, respect, and mutual benefit' during talks on Wednesday, while criticizing new U.S. tariffs on Chinese goods as 'bullying and hegemonic.'
