first off each country can set up how they do tariffs as they see fit.
China's threat to tax pork had an exceptions for Chinese owned pork supplying companies. So Smithfield would not be hurt.
also in this case supply and demand will weigh in. when China threatened the bean tariff on the US, brazilian bean prices went up and ours went down a bit in the middle of the night due to time zone differences (12 hours to China). so 6 hours later when the Europeans woke up and saw US bean prices were a better deal than Brazil's they started buying US beans.. by the time we woke up we hardly noticed.
