What happened

Some supportReported by 2 outlets

The United States and China agreed to extend the terms of the Busan trade deal until January 10. The agreement, reached during a meeting in Busan last October, involved several reciprocal measures. The United States lowered tariffs on Chinese goods from 57% to 47%, while also reducing fentanyl-related tariffs from 20% to 10%. In return, China authorized purchases of US agricultural products and agreed to continue unrestricted exports of rare earth metals.
