Donald Trump signs new rules for trade. These rules are for one important material. The material is called Poly-Silizium. People need it for solar cells. People need it for computer chips too. The USA want to protect their own firms. Goods from other countries shall not be cheap anymore.
There is a tax of 15 percent now. The tax is called Zoll. There are minimum prices for import too. One kilo of Poly-Silizium must cost 21 dollars. The new rules start in December. The US government says: The security of the land is in danger. There were similar rules for steel and cars before.
China criticizes the new rules of the USA. A speaker says: The USA use their power in a wrong way. The dispute between both countries lasts long. The USA accuse China of forced work. Many Chinese firms are on a block list. China announces stricter controls for drones now.
