#USChinaTradeTalks The US and China, the world’s two largest economies, have been engaged in high-stakes trade negotiations to de-escalate a trade war sparked by President Donald Trump’s imposition of 145% tariffs on Chinese imports in April 2025, followed by China’s retaliatory 125% tariffs on US goods. Recent talks, primarily in Geneva, Switzerland, have led to a temporary truce, with both sides agreeing to roll back tariffs significantly for a 90-day period to facilitate further negotiations. However, progress has stalled recently, and tensions persist due to structural issues like trade deficits, technology restrictions, and national security concerns.
