The United States has no plans to tighten tariffs on China, despite allegations of Beijing's interference in the US elections. This was announced by Peter Navarro, US Presidential Advisor on Trade and Manufacturing, to a small group of journalists at the White House, in öp.
"No. I think these are different areas," he emphasized, responding to a question about whether the US would adjust its tariffs on China in light of the aforementioned insinuations. "This isn't about China. This is about the US's refusal, at the political level, to ensure the security of our electoral system," the US presidential aide stated.
According to him, "this happened due to the fault of individuals acting with malicious intent and located inside the country." "They wanted to ensure that the 2020 vote results did not reflect the will of the voters," Navarro said.
He was asked to clarify why the US government, in this case, isn't raising the issue of "punishing" China in the trade sphere if it considers the issue of alleged election interference so important. "It's a serious matter. But I'm not going to talk about it today. I'm sure there will be some discussion about it.
