BEIJING, Feb 4, 2025 (BSS/AFP) - China said Tuesday it would impose tariffs of 15 percent on imports of coal and liquefied natural gas from the United States, after Washington slapped ten percent levies on Chinese goods.

"A 15 percent tariff will be imposed on coal and liquefied natural gas (LNG)," Beijing's commerce ministry said, adding the tariffs come into force next Monday.
