News – 10 percent duty will be imposed on China from February 1, Trump hinted in the press conference

Washington. US President Donald Trump said that his team is working on imposing 10 percent duty on China from February 1. President Trump said the decision to impose tariffs on China will be based on whether it is sending 'fentanyl' to Mexico and Canada. 'Fentanil' is a type of narcotic which is 50 times more powerful and addictive than heroin.
Trump said during a press conference at the White House with Oracle Chief Technology Officer (CTO) Larry Ellison, SoftBank Chief Executive Officer (CEO) Masayoshi Son and Open AI CEO Sam Altman, “We are imposing a 10 percent tariff on China.” “We are considering imposing a ban, which will be based on the fact of China sending 'fentanyl' to Mexico and Canada.
Trump said he is considering making the tariffs effective from February 1. The US President said, we have been talking about imposing 25 percent duty on Mexico and China. On another question, Trump said that when he spoke to Chinese President Xi Jinping last week, he “did not talk much about tariffs.”
