US hikes tariffs on China to 104% after Beijing makes "mistake" of retaliating: WH

U.S. President Donald Trump believes that "China has to make a deal with the United States" concerning additional tariffs that are set to go into effect on Wednesday, White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt told a news briefing.

"The Chinese want to make a deal. They just don't know how to do it," Leavitt said on Tuesday.

"It was a mistake for China to retaliate. That's why there will be 104 per cent tariffs going into effect on China tonight at midnight," she said.

If China reaches out, she added, Trump would be "incredibly gracious, but he's going to do what's best for the American people."
