It is indeed excellent news that the United States and China have successfully reached an agreement following today's meeting at the China-US Geneva Economic and Trade Talks. This breakthrough marks a significant step forward in easing trade tensions and fostering a more cooperative economic environment between the two global economic powerhouses.

Key Points from the Agreement

According to the Ministry of Commerce Spokesperson's Remarks on the China-US Joint Statement on Economic and Trade Talks in Geneva, the United States has committed to the following actions:

1. Fully rescinding the 91% additional tariffs imposed on Chinese goods under Executive Order 14259 (issued on April 8, 2025) and Executive Order 14266 (issued on April 9, 2025).
2. Modifying the 34% retaliatory tariffs imposed under Executive Order 14257 (issued on April 2, 2025), which includes:
   • Suspending 24% of these tariffs for a period of 90 days.
   • Maintaining the remaining 10% of the tariffs.

In response, China will:

1. Remove all 91% of its counter-tariffs on U.S. goods.
2. Adjust its 34% retaliatory tariffs accordingly:
   • Suspending 24% for 90 days, in alignment with the U.S. measure.
   • Retaining the remaining 10%.
3. Suspend or cancel non-tariff countermeasures against the United States.

This implies that, currently, the remaining 10% of the tariffs will be retained by both sides, signaling a cautious yet positive approach towards further trade liberalization.
