The chief adviser's post comes within minutes of Trump's announcement on pausing the tariffs for all nations, except China.
For China, the US President announced that he was raising the tariff rate to 125% from the previously announced 104%.
"Based on the lack of respect that China has shown to the World's Markets, I am hereby raising the Tariff charged to China by the United States of America to 125%, effective immediately," Trump wrote on Truth Social.
