President Donald Trump took to Truth Social Friday to announce the U.S. will impose an additional 100% tariff on imports from China beginning in November.
The announcement was made hours after a separate post from Trump, in which he warned of possible new tariffs and suggested canceling a meeting with Chinese President Xi Jinping, claiming Beijing was planning sweeping export controls on rare earth minerals.
"Starting November 1st, 2025 (or sooner, depending on any further actions or changes taken by China), the United States of America will impose a Tariff of 100% on China, over and above any Tariff that they are currently paying," Trump posted to Truth Social Friday afternoon.
"Also on November 1st, we will impose Export Controls on any and all critical software."
