Tensions are boiling over as top U.S. officials land in London for a high-stakes trade showdown with global consequences. U.S President Donald Trump announces urgent talks with U.K. leaders amid escalating clashes with China over semiconductors, student visas, and stalled rare earth exports. With $582 billion in U.S.-U.K. trade at risk, Beijing accuses Washington of betrayal and economic sabotage.

The EU has raised alarms over severe disruptions caused by China’s rare earth export restrictions, which have slashed supplies to key industries, including auto manufacturing. Exports to Germany halved in April, prompting emergency talks between EU officials and China’s commerce ministry. Beijing’s opaque and security-heavy licensing system is delaying shipments and pushing prices 4–7 times higher. The U.S. has accused China of violating trade agreements, as manufacturers in both the EU and U.S. now face critical material shortages.

Tensions escalated in the South China Sea after China warned the European Union to stop “provoking trouble” and stay out of its territorial disputes with the Philippines. The sharp rebuke followed EU foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas' visit to Manila, where she voiced concern over China's assertive actions. Beijing insisted the EU has no legal or diplomatic role in the matter, cautioning Manila not to rely on outside powers for resolution. The statement underscores China's hardened stance as geopolitical fault lines deepen in the contested maritime zone.

The U.S.-China tariff conflict continues to escalate as China denies any plans for a phone call between President Xi Jinping and President Trump, contradicting White House claims. With trade tensions rising after Trump’s global tariffs and accusations of China violating agreements, both nations remain locked in a standoff. While officials had agreed on a temporary tariff reduction, mistrust runs high as Trump threatens to double tariffs on steel and aluminum, further straining global trade relations and leaving the world watching closely for any direct leader-level contact.
