China vows to 'fight to the end' after Trump threatens additional 50% tariffs
China has promised to "fight to the end", after US President Donald Trump threatened to almost double tariffs on Chinese imports to more than 100%.

Meanwhile, EU chief Ursula von der Leyen has urged Chinese Premier Li Qiang against further escalation, stressing the vital importance of stability for the world's economy. Olivia Siong reports from Beijing and Nick Harper reports from Washington DC.
