🇺🇸🇨🇳 U.S. and Chinese delegations return to trade talks venue in Switzerland after break: Reuters.
U.S. and Chinese delegations resuming trade talks in Switzerland on May 10, 2025, following a break, as per Reuters, amid a trade war with tariffs exceeding 100% on both sides, disrupting global supply chains and markets.
Background tensions stem from U.S. President Trump's April 2025 tariffs, including 145% on Chinese goods, with China retaliating at 125%, while talks aim to address tariff reductions and export controls, as noted in Reuters’ May 7, 2025, article.
Despite earlier Chinese denials of negotiations in April 2025 (NYT, April 25), their commerce ministry’s shift to “evaluating” talks signals a potential de-escalation, though experts like Bo Zhengyuan from Plenum remain skeptical of substantive outcomes.
