China has launched an anti-dumping investigation into pecans imported from Mexico and the United States and another investigation into Mexico’s trade restrictions on the same day, escalating trade tensions with its U.S. neighbor.
The Chinese communist regime’s Ministry of Commerce issued a statement on its website on Sept. 25, saying that “preliminary evidence” showed that imported pecans from the two North American countries to China at prices “lower than normal, indicating dumping,” and “causing substantial harm to China’s domestic industry.”
