Headline: UNCAPTIONED: US and China Reach Tentative Deal to Ease Trade Tensions
Caption: US and China Reach Tentative Deal to Ease Trade Tensions. The US and China say they've reached a preliminary agreement aimed at reducing trade tensions between the world's two largest economies. After two days of high-level talks in London, both sides announced a framework deal that could resolve disputes over rare earth minerals and high-tech exports. US Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick said the agreement should ease restrictions on rare earth metals and magnets—materials essential for smartphones, electric vehicles, and military tech. The plan will now be reviewed by Presidents Donald Trump and Xi Jinping. This follows a temporary truce last month where both countries lowered tariffs, but disagreements over non-tariff issues continued. The US accused China of slow-walking rare earth exports, while Beijing criticized US limits on tech sales and student visas. If approved, the deal could be a major step toward stabilizing trade and supply chains critical to modern technology.
