#USChinaTradeTalks The term US-China trade talks refers to ongoing negotiations between the United States and China aimed at resolving trade disputes, addressing tariffs, and fostering economic cooperation. These discussions have been particularly significant since early 2025 when President Donald Trump reintroduced substantial tariffs on Chinese imports, leading to a reciprocal response from Beijing.

In May 2025, a preliminary agreement was reached in Geneva, establishing a 90-day truce that temporarily reduced tariffs to 10%. This truce set the stage for further negotiations, with high-level talks scheduled in London on June 9, 2025. The U.S. delegation, led by Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick, and Trade Representative Jamieson Greer, met with Chinese Vice Premier He Lifeng to address critical issues such as rare-earth minerals and advanced technology exports.
