'Very strong' trade deal: US and China cut tariffs in major shift
- President Donald Trump and China agreed in May 2025 to temporarily cut tariffs on each other's goods to ease trade tensions.
- This deal follows months of escalating tariffs, including U.S. tariffs that once reached 145%, and retaliatory Chinese levies up to 125%.
- The agreement reduces U.S. tariffs on Chinese imports to 30% and China’s tariffs on U.S. goods to about 10%, effective for 90 days.
- Experts caution that the tariff pause may provide only limited relief from ongoing supply chain challenges and price fluctuations, emphasizing that while tariff changes can happen quickly, adjusting global supply chains is a complex process that requires significant time.
- The temporary tariff rollback offers markets relief but leaves uncertainty about future escalation, which could prolong higher consumer prices and business challenges.
