Trump warns China of extra 50% tariff
The Chinese Commerce Ministry has said it will fight US tariffs till the end as the world's two largest economies come closer to an all-out trade war.
President Trump says he is not considering a pause on new tariffs to allow for negotiations with other countries.
As countries try to find ways to respond or hold talks, we'll head to Germany to get reaction from there. We'll get an American businesses perspective too.
Meanwhile, Asian markets have opened higher this morning despite the US threatening more tariffs on China.
And President Trump says the US and Iran will have nuclear talks this week. We'll head to Iran to look at what these talks could achieve.
