White House announces trade deal with China, but details remain unclear
- On May 11, 2025, the White House revealed that the United States and China had reached a preliminary trade deal after two days of senior-level discussions in Geneva.
- The agreement followed a month-long standoff during which both the U.S. And China imposed tariffs exceeding 100 percent on each other's goods.
- Under the deal, U.S. Tariffs on Chinese imports will drop to about 30 percent, while China will apply a 10 percent tariff on U.S. Goods for a 90-day period.
- U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent characterized the discussions as productive and noted that neither party was aiming for a separation, while analysts regarded the deal as an encouraging initial step.
- Though details remain undisclosed and questions persist about specific concessions, the deal allows further negotiations during the 90-day tariff reduction period and signals progress.
