What have China and the US agreed to in Geneva?
- Following discussions in Geneva, China and the US reached an agreement to ease their trade conflict by reducing most tariffs and related measures by Wednesday.
- The truce follows tit-for-tat tariff escalations, with both sides agreeing to roll back recent tariffs imposed since April 2.
- The United States will reduce extra tariffs on China to 30% from 145%, while China will cut tariffs to 10% from 125%, but pre-April 2 tariffs remain.
- The agreement includes removing some countermeasures imposed after April 2, with China committing to withdraw some non-tariff barriers and blacklist removals, though uncertainty remains.
- Despite tariff reductions, separate tariffs on Chinese electric vehicles, rare earth export controls, and certain probes will persist, indicating uneven and incomplete de-escalation.
