BEIJING (Reuters) - China on Wednesday vowed to take resolute and effective measures to safeguard its rights and interests, after U.S. President Donald Trump's 104% duties on Chinese imports kicked in.

"The U.S. continues to abuse tariffs to pressure China, China firmly opposes this and will never accept this kind of bullying," Chinese foreign ministry spokesperson Lin Jian told a regular news conference.

If the U.S. really wants to solve the problem through dialogue and negotiation, it should adopt an attitude of equality, respect and mutual benefit, Lin said.
