China's July exports top forecasts amid rush to meet Trump tariff deadline

China's exports surpassed expectations in July, driven by manufacturers capitalizing on a temporary tariff truce with the U.S. to ship goods before an impending deadline. Despite this surge, economists anticipate a slowdown in export growth during the latter half of the year due to persistent tariffs and strained relations with both the EU and the U.S. Tired of too many ads?

Trump indicates China could face secondary sanctions for Russian Oil purchase

Washington DC [US], August 7 (ANI): US President Donald Trump has indicated that China could face secondary sanctions or additional tariffs for buying Russian Oil. On Wednesday (local time), the US President had hit India with additional tariffs of 25% specifically tied to the purchase of Russian Oil. At a news conference in the White House, the US President was asked if similar secondary sanction would apply to China given that the Chinese are the largest buyers of Russian Crude Oil. The President replied saying, 'It may happen, I don't know, I can't tell you yet, we did it with India and we are doing it probably with a couple of others, one of them could be China."According to data by the Centre for Research on Energy and Clean Air (CERA) for June 2025, China has bought 47% of Russia's crude exports, followed by India (38%), the EU (6%), and Turkiye (6%). CERA is an independent research organisation registered as a nonprofit in is the largest buyer of oil products and has purchased 26% of Russia's oil product exports, followed by China (13%) and Brazil (12%).The EU was the largest buyer of LNG from Russia purchasing 51% of LNG exports from the country, followed by China (21%) and Japan (18%).The EU was also the largest buyer of Russia's pipeline gas, purchasing 37% of it, followed by China (30%) and Turkiye (27%).Neither China nor Turkey are facing additional US tariffs specifically tied to Russian Oil or Oil Product Wednesday, India's Ministry of External Affairs had pointed at China and Turkey while saying that targeting India with additional sanctions for Russian imports was unfair. In its statement the MEA said, 'The United States has in recent days targeted India's oil imports from Russia. We have already made clear our position on these issues, including the fact that our imports are based on market factors and done with the overall objective of ensuring the energy security of 1.4 billion people of India."'It is therefore extremely unfortunate that the US should choose to impose additional tariffs on India for actions that several other countries are also taking in their own national interest. We reiterate that these actions are unfair, unjustified and unreasonable. India will take all actions necessary to protect its national interests," the MEA China nor Turkey are facing additional US tariffs specifically tied to Russian Oil or Oil Product White House Trade Adviser Peter Navarro justified the secondary tariff imposed on India citing national security grounds. Addressing a news conference Navarro said, 'This was a pure national security issue associated with India's abject refusal to stop buying Russian oil."With the US pushing the purchase of Russian Oil as a national security issue, there could soon be additional tariffs for countries like China, unless a peace deal is worked out with Russia.

'Taking It Personally': Expert Points To Op Sindoor Ceasefire Row Amid Trump's Tariff Tantrums

Michael Kugelman was referring to India's repeated denial that the US President had a role to play in the ceasefire with Pakistan in the aftermath of Operation Sindoor US President Donald Trump's additional tariffs on India over the country's continued purchase of oil from Russia appear to be driven less by economic rationale and more by personal grievance, Washington DC-based South Asia analyst and foreign affairs expert Michael Kugelman has said, calling it the 'worst crisis" that the relationship has faced over the last two decades. In an interview with news agency ANI, Kugelman, Director of the South Asia Institute at the Wilson Centre, said the censure of India seemed to stem from Trump taking India's firm and independent stance as a personal affront. Asked why the US President was not punishing China, but targeting India, Kugelman said: '…China has not stood out there and refused to let President Trump take credit for his role in the ceasefire. China has not had its leader have a long conversation with Trump on the phone and essentially dictate to him what's right and what's wrong. These are things that happened with India. So, I think that's why perhaps President Trump would reserve some of his greatest ire on the trade and tariff front for India and for the Indian government. Indeed, it's a double standard. It's hypocritical, whatever you want to say…" Kugelman was referring to India's repeated denial that the US President had a role to play in the ceasefire with Pakistan in the aftermath of Operation Sindoor—a claim Trump has repeated on several occasions, attributing the end of hostilities to trade offers made by America. While India, including foreign affairs minister S Jaishankar, had in the past too denied any external mediation in the ceasefire, it was Prime Minister Narendra Modi's assertion in Parliament during a special discussion on Operation Sindoor that seemed to seal the deal. 'We had said from day one that our action was non-escalatory. No leader in the world asked us to stop Operation Sindoor," the prime minister said, puncturing Trump's narrative. Kugelman's observations, however, did not sit well with former foreign secretary Kanwal Sibal, who questioned why PM Modi could not call out Trump's lies despite the US President's fallacious claims. Taking to X, Sibal wrote: 'Why play the charade of giving false credit for a ceasefire based on trade threats and one announced over the head of India's leader, creating thereby impression India was pressured to agree? Trump can keep assailing India as a tariff king, threaten tariffs, talk of his interest in mediating the Kashmir issue but Modi dare not tell him what's right and what's wrong? India has sovereign interests which it has to defend." Sibal also shifted focus to China's stand on the US and the hypocrisy displayed by Trump. 'Chinese spokespersons day in and day out speak disparagingly of the US, talk down at it, express defiance. Yet, Trump is delaying imposing tariffs on China." view comments First Published: Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's. Please keep discussions respectful and constructive.
