China, U.S. confirm details of their trade deal, Beijing says
- On Friday, China’s Ministry of Commerce confirmed the trade framework after the June 5 call, with the deal signed in mid-June, both sides said.
- In April, China imposed export licensing requirements on seven rare earth elements, overshadowing tariffs and leading to postponed Geneva talks that aimed to ease trade tensions.
- London talks set a framework to implement the Geneva deal’s tariff rollback, and a separate official said this week’s agreement also covers rare earths shipments.
- Following the trade deal confirmation, China will review and approve export applications, the US will lift restrictions, and global markets responded positively.
- Beyond immediate effects, experts highlight that practical measures like accelerated export approvals aim to stabilize supply chains and reduce reliance on Chinese rare earths, with the upcoming July expo showcasing US industry growth.
