Mexico approves up to 50% tariffs on China and other countriesThe move comes as Mexico is in negotiations with the US over steep import taxes that President Donald Trump has threatened to impose on the country. Dozens of countries that do not have a free trade agreement with Mexico will be affected, including Thailand, India and Indonesia. Mexican lawmakers have approved a package of new tariffs, impacting hundreds of products, many of which come from China. The measures will impose tariffs of up to 50% on more than 1,400 products. The levies will "substantially harm the interests of trading partners, including China," said a spokesperson for Beijing's commerce ministry on Thursday.
