The US has reached a new trade agreement with China under which all Chinese imports will face a 55% tariff, while American exports to China will be subject to a reduced 10% tariff. This was the result of two days of talks between diplomats from the two nations in London.

U.S. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick said that a trade framework and implementation plan agreed with China in London should result in restrictions on rare earths and magnets being resolved. China's Vice Commerce Minister Li Chenggang said earlier the two teams had agreed on implementing their Geneva consensus and would take the agreed framework back to their leaders.
