China - US tariff decision further deteriorates global trade environment

Earlier was the news of President Trump imposes 30% tariff on solar imports

South Korea is not happy: (Shock non-bitcoin news from South Korea!) SK seeks to reinstate tariffs on US products

Now China weighs in

• China commerce ministry says expresses strong dissatisfaction regarding US tariffs on imported washers, solar cells
• Says US decision further deteriorates global trade environment
• Says China hopes US will refrain from using trade remedy measures
• Says China will resolutely safeguard China's interests

These trade tensions risk further escalation. Not a positive for 'risk' (eg. AUD)
