#USChinaTradeTalks US-China trade talks remain a tense and complex affair. Following a temporary "tariff truce" in May 2025 that briefly eased high tariffs, both nations have accused each other of breaches. Discussions in London in June 2025 aim to resolve disputes, focusing on critical issues like China's rare earth exports and US restrictions on semiconductor technology. While some tariff reductions were achieved, significant barriers persist, and a 90-day deadline looms for a more lasting agreement. The broader context of strategic rivalry continues to influence trade relations, impacting global markets and supply chains.
