China has reacted negatively to President Donald Trump’s reciprocal tariffs, with the country’s Communist Party-controlled foreign ministry accusing the U.S. of “bullying.”

Trump unveiled a 34 percent tariff on Chinese goods at his “Liberation Day” event from the White House Rose Garden on Wednesday in response to China’s 67 percent tariff on American products.

Speaking to the press in Beijing, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Guo Jiakun claimed Trump’s tariffs have violated the rules of the World Trade Organization (WTO), which China “firmly rejects.”

Here's hoping Trump really has shut off the flow of American money to the WTO.

Got it.
