United States President Donald Trump and his Chinese counterpart Xi Jinping have agreed to a trade truce under which the US will ease tariffs and Beijing will restart imports of US soya beans, delay the introduction of export restrictions on some of its rare earth metals, and intensify efforts to curb illegal fentanyl trafficking. (Al Jazeera<\/a>)<\/p>\n

Trump threatened a 100% import tax in retaliation for China’s rare earth restrictions, but he told reporters after the meeting that total tariffs on China would be reduced to 47%.<\/p>\n

There is mutual recognition that neither country wants to risk damaging the world economy, as this would harm itself.<\/p>\n

When the two were seated at the start of the meeting, Xi read prepared remarks that stressed a willingness to work together despite differences. (APNews<\/a>)<\/p>\n

The meeting was shorter than expected, which indicates that neither side deviated from an agreed-upon\u00a0script. Trump described the meeting, which lasted an hour and forty minutes, as “amazing” and “12 out of 10,” but analysts remain skeptical.<\/p>\n

“The proposed deal on the table fits the pattern we’ve seen all year: short-term stabilization dressed up as strategic progress,” said Craig Singleton, senior director of the China program at the Foundation for Defense of Democracies. “Both sides are managing volatility, calibrating just enough cooperation to avert crisis while the deeper rivalry endures.” (APNews<\/a>)<\/p>\n

The US will likely also reduce restrictions on exports of advanced computer chips to China. According to the president, the issue was discussed, and Nvidia will hold talks with Chinese officials.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
