China Responds to Trump's Tariffs with Economic Measures

China announced a series of economic measures in response to the 10% tariffs imposed by the Trump administration on Chinese imports, including new tariffs on U.S. goods and export controls on critical minerals.

• The tariffs may exacerbate economic inequalities, particularly affecting low-income communities reliant on affordable goods.
• Increased tensions between the U.S. and China could hinder international cooperation on global issues, including those related to diversity and inclusion.
• The situation may lead to job losses in sectors dependent on trade with China, disproportionately impacting marginalized workers in the U.S.
