In a tit-for-tat move, China on Tuesday imposed additional tariffs on some US products, Anadolu Agency reports citing to local media.

According to China's Ministry of Commerce and General Administration of Customs, Beijing imposed additional tariffs on certain imported goods originating from the US, including a 15% tariff on coal and liquefied natural gas and 10% tariff on crude oil, agricultural machinery, large-displacement cars, and pickup trucks, state-run Global Times reported.

The ministry said that Washington's unilateral tariff "seriously violates the rules of the World Trade Organization."

China also included two US companies PVH Group and Illumina into unreliable entities list.

"The two entities have violated the principle of normal market transactions by cutting normal transactions with Chinese enterprises and adopting discriminatory measures against Chinese firms, seriously jeopardizing the legitimate rights and interests of Chinese companies," said the ministry.

Beijing also said it will impose tariffs of 10% to 15% on some more US products starting on Feb. 10, the South China Morning Post reported.

Meanwhile, China's State Administration for Market Regulation said it has launched a formal investigation into US tech giant Google over a suspected violation of China's Anti-Monopoly Law.

The latest development comes after US President Donald Trump imposed a 10% tariff on imports from China.
