Trump not considering pausing tariffs despite global turmoil
US President Donald Trump says he will impose additional tariffs on China, from Tuesday, if Beijing does not withdraw its 34% retaliatory tariffs on the US.
The additional tariffs on Beijing would be of 50%, Trump says.
As a reminder, China announced on Friday that it would be imposing such tariffs on Washington after the White House said that from 9 April it'd put 34% levies on all goods from Beijing.
