China’s commerce ministry says it will “resolutely retaliate” if the United States maintains unilateral measures restricting imports of new Chinese robots and power inverters. Speaking on Thursday, China said it would safeguard its interests, responding to the U.S. action described by Reuters as an import ban covering both robots and power inverters. The statement signals that Beijing views the U.S. restrictions as a unilateral step and is prepared to take countermeasures if the U.S. does not revise its approach. Both outlets frame the development as a direct warning from Chinese authorities tied to U.S. trade curbs. The reports do not provide details of what form retaliation could take, nor do they specify any timeline for further U.S. or Chinese decisions. The issue is presented as part of broader tensions over technology and trade controls, with China drawing a clear line that it will respond if the U.S. continues the restrictions.
