China urges US to immediately withdraw drone tariffs

China urged the U.S. to immediately ‌withdraw Section 232 tariffs it imposed on imports of drones and ⁠related components, a Chinese commerce ministry spokesperson said on Thursday during a regular press conference.

The tariffs "treat related ‌Chinese ⁠products in a discriminatory manner and seriously harms the interests ⁠of Chinese companies," He Yadong, a ministry ⁠spokesperson, said.

''China firmly opposes ⁠this,'' he said.
