Donald Trump introduced customs. Maria Zacharova talks about "regarding the foundations of trade"

In the assessment of the Russian Federation, US president Donald Trump imposes extended customs duties “provides disregarding the foundations of global trade‘.

– It seems to me that the White House's last decision on duties, which is contrary to (WTO standards – ed.) and violates WTO fundamental rules (World Trade Organisation – ed.), shows that Washington no longer considers itself bound by global trade law standards said the spokesperson for the Ministry of abroad Affairs Maria Zacharowa.

The Russian official, as reported by AFP, expressed "a claim for a trade war between the United States and China". That's it. Over 100 percent of the duties were imposed on Beijing USA. Moscow seems to be in a hard position – from the beginning of a full-scale invasion of Ukraine She has strengthened relations with China, but is now besides trying to improve her relation with Washington.

– Any shock to the global economy, threatening to slow down growth and overall decline in consumption, has a negative impact on many global processes said the spokesperson for the Russian Ministry of abroad Affairs.

Zacharova added that "the situation is all the more worrying erstwhile we talk about the world's 2 biggest economies".

Putin's Emissary defends Trump's decision. "Takes bold steps"

Zacharów's conviction seems not to share the head of the Russian Direct Investment Fund (RFPI) and peculiar envoy Vladimir Putin, Kiryl Dmitriev.

"It would be easy to ignore a debt that grows to over $30 trillion and a increasing trade deficit, as erstwhile presidents did. It would be easy to put this problem on the shoulders of future generations. But Trump takes bold steps to halt U.S. bankruptcy, reconstruct jobs, stimulate investment and revive the economy. This is leadership," he wrote online.

The American leader, in turn, stated that nearly 70 countries were to study to the White home to negociate on the duties imposed.

Let us remind you that The Russian Federation was not included in the list of countries to which US duties are hitting. US President's economical advisor Kevin Hassett explained that this had to do with the ongoing peace talks of the war in Ukraine.

China, on the another hand, which the US has imposed the top restrictions on, announced that they will respond in the same way.
