In a study released on Thursday, the White House claimed that over 40 nations had helped China avoid US tariffs by routing products through countries with lower import taxes. The White House said that these nations Canada, India, Mexico, Japan, and South Korea had assisted China in avoiding duties worth tens of billions of dollars that are imposed on businesses that import goods.
American jobs and billions in revenue” were lost, according to White House trade adviser Peter Navarro. In answer to questions from the BBC, a representative for the Chinese embassy in Washington stated that “trade wars have no winners” and that it is against the US tariffs and the use of state power to target Chinese businesses.
The spokeswoman stated that “any unilateral actions or agreements concerning transshipped goods must not target or harm the interests of third parties”. The US embassies in Canada, India, Mexico, Japan, South Korea, and other trading partners mentioned in the story have been approached by the BBC for comment.
