US Reached Out to Beijing to Start Tariff Talks, Says Chinese State Media

  • In early May 2025, representatives from the United States initiated discussions with Chinese officials regarding the tariffs affecting trade between the two nations.
  • Following the implementation of steep US duties—peaking at 145 percent on numerous Chinese goods in April—Beijing retaliated by imposing tariffs of up to 125 percent on American imports.
  • A Beijing-linked outlet, Yuyuan Tantian, reported that Washington acted “proactively” through multiple channels for talks despite Beijing denying any actual discussions were underway.
  • US President Donald Trump said on May 1 that there was a “very good chance we’re going to make a deal” but insisted it must be “on our terms” and “fair”.
  • The resumption of dialogue suggests both sides may seek to resolve tariffs, though Beijing vows to continue the trade war if necessary, emphasizing a need for fair and respectful discussion.
