President-elect Donald Trump has threatened to impose new tariffs on Chinese imports when he takes office next year.

In 2018, during his first term in the White House, Trump initiated a trade war with China by imposing 25% tariffs on imports, including industrial machinery, cars, auto parts, and television cameras. These goods accounted for about $50 billion of the $540 billion the United States spent that year on Chinese-made products.
