US EditionBritain is ‘compliant servant of communist China’, says Trump’s tariff chief
- Peter Navarro, President Trump's trade advisor, accused the UK in 2025 of being a compliant servant to communist China during an interview with The Telegraph.
- Navarro's remarks followed his long-standing concerns about China's economic tactics and came amid ongoing UK-US trade talks and reciprocal tariffs imposed by the Trump administration.
- He warned that if China cannot exploit the US market due to tariffs, it will target the UK and EU, urging Britain to reject China's 'string-laden gifts' and avoid becoming a dumping ground for redirected Chinese goods.
- The US has imposed tariffs up to 165% on Chinese exports, and the UK faces tariffs of 10% on basic goods and 25% on automobiles, while diplomatic tensions over China's influence in the UK have intensified ahead of potential trade agreements.
- Navarro's statements highlight risks for the UK economy amid closer ties with China and suggest vigilance is needed to protect national security and trade interests during this sensitive period.
