What happened
US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and Chinese Vice Premier He Lifeng are scheduled to meet to prepare for a Washington summit between US President Donald Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping. Key topics for the summit include tariffs, critical minerals, and guard rails for artificial intelligence. The existing US-China trade truce is set to expire on November 10.
Why it matters
The discussions center on stabilizing a trade relationship between the world's two largest economies, which has previously threatened global supply chains. US Trade Representative Jamieson Greer stated that the countries plan to announce items related to agriculture and non-tariff barriers, with traders watching for progress on a mutual tariff reduction covering $30 billion in goods.
