BEIJING, March 4 (Reuters) - China on Tuesday swiftly retaliated against fresh U.S. tariffs, announcing hikes to import levies covering $21 billion worth of American agricultural and food products, moving the world's top two economies a step closer towards an all-out trade war.
Beijing also placed twenty five U.S. firms under export and investment restrictions on national security grounds, but refrained from punishing any household names, as it did when it retaliated against the Trump administration's February 4 tariffs.
