Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs Spox, Lin Jian, has said, “#Fentanyl is the U.S.’s problem, not China’s”, adding, “the U.S. and the U.S. alone has the responsibility to solve it”.
Jian’s statement is coming following US President, Donald Trump’s ‘Reciprocal Tariffs’ on goods coming into America from China, which forced China to respond by imposing tariffs on goods coming into the Asian country from the US.
The Chinese MFA Spox said, “Despite the goodwill China has shown, the U.S. slapped tariffs on Chinese imports and blames it on fentanyl”, and further said, “this is bullying through and through, and highly damaging to dialogue and cooperation on #counternarcotics “.

“Despite the goodwill China has shown, the U.S. slapped tariffs on Chinese imports and blames it on fentanyl. This is bullying through and through, and highly damaging to dialogue and cooperation on #counternarcotics. The U.S. should know that vilifying others will not hide its failed responsibility, to punish those who try to help will not solve any problem, and intimidation or threats are certainly not the right way to engage with China.”
