The Biden administration will double tariffs on certain solar panel components that are made in China, it announced Wednesday.

Starting in January, imports of Chinese solar wafers and polysilicon will carry a 50 percent tariff, up from the current levy of 25 percent. Polysilicon is a type of silicon that is used to make solar panels, while wafers are the semiconductors used in the panels.

In addition, the administration said it would increase tariffs on certain Chinese products made out of the mineral tungsten, which has applications in the aerospace, automotive, defense, medical, and oil and gas industries.

In a written statement, U.S. Trade Representative Katherine Tai said the increased tariffs would hurt China and support U.S. investments.


“The tariff increases announced today will further blunt the harmful policies and practices by the People’s Republic of China,” she said.

“These actions will complement the domestic investments made under the Biden-Harris Administration to promote a clean energy economy, while increasing the resilience of critical supply chains,” Tai added.

The Biden administration has previously taken other steps to increase tariffs on Chinese solar and other equipment — arguing that it’s doing so in support of domestic manufacturing.

More broadly, the administration has sought to make the case that climate action and job growth can be compatible, and has sought to encourage domestic manufacturing of climate-friendly energy sources.

In addition, the administration has found that forced labor is used to produce Chinese polysilicon.::

On China, Trump accused Beijing of not taking strong enough action to stop the flow of illicit drugs into the U.S. from Mexico.
"Until such time as they stop, we will be charging China an additional 10% Tariff, above any additional Tariffs, on all of their many products coming into the United States of America," Trump said.

If in Mexico, most profitble legal business like Coca Cola is controlled by USA, and most profitble illegal business like Drug and even god damn Avocado are controlled by Catels, then this is the real shit:


China has overtaken Japan as the largest importer, taking 66,000 tonnes during 2023. Japan, traditionally the largest importer in Asia, took 62,000 tonnes. Peru and Mexico are the dominant suppliers. Peru was the largest supplier of avocados to China, with shipments rising by 40 per cent to 50,000 tonnes.

In a sign that China’s ability to develop new tech might be slowing, the flagship Huawei Mate 70 Pro smartphone appears to have only a chipset update, rather than one made with a smaller fab process. According to TechInsights, which analyzed the Mate 70 Pro’s processor, the phone has a HiSilicon Kirin 9020 instead of the Kirin 9100 chipset they expected. Why Huawei stuck with the 7nm process instead of moving to a 5nm process is an open question.

Law enforcement agencies in the United States have expressed worries that Chinese crypto channels are increasingly being used to launder money by Mexican drug cartels and other transnational organized crime groups.

This comes at a time when the size of Chinese exports such as chemicals and other ingredients used in making hard drugs to the U.S. has been growing, per Asia Times. According to a senior official at the U.S. Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA), Paul Knierim, a notable increase in money launderers from Asia has subsequently been observed:

The shift toward Chinese and Asian money launderers is believed to be, in part, due to the natural relationship created by the large volume of both licit and illicit trade goods and chemicals imported from China. The use of an Asian money broker simplifies the money laundering process and streamlines the purchase of precursor chemicals and paraphernalia utilized in manufacturing drugs for street sales.

Growing Sophistication​

In a report issued a few weeks ago, the DEA pointed out that in the last eight years, a steady decline in the amount of cash seized throughout the United States had been recorded and this could mean that more discreet techniques of moving illicit cash were being employed.

Specifically, the DEA cited the Chinese Underground Banking Systems (CUBS) as a key laundering channel. The CUBS money brokers, the DEA noted, was turning to bitcoin both to launder money for drug traffickers and to assist Chinese nationals interested in moving amounts exceeding the allowed annual limit of US$50,000 outside the country:

CUBS money brokers sell Bitcoin to drug traffickers for cash earned from drug sales in the US, Australia, and Europe. This drug cash is then sold to Chinese nationals in exchange for Bitcoin the Chinese nationals use to transfer the value of their assets outside of China.

To avoid detection and traceability, these bitcoin trades are conducted over the counter with the Chinese brokers relying on foreign-based exchanges which have lax Know Your Customer and Anti-Money Laundering policies.
