U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent declined to confirm direct tariff negotiations with China, suggesting that Beijing faces severe economic fallout if current trade barriers persist. Speaking to reporters, Bessent cited potential Chinese job losses in the millions and argued that the U.S. trade deficit puts pressure on China to act. While avoiding specifics on communications, he hinted at the unsustainable nature of China’s tariff stance. Beijing denies ongoing talks. The standoff continues, clouded by diplomatic silence and sharp warnings of economic instability from Washington.

President Trump signals a potential rollback of his steep China tariffs, saying they’ll “come down substantially, but won’t be zero.” His comments follow Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent’s prediction of a “de-escalation” in the trade war, calling current rates unsustainable. Trump imposed 145% tariffs on Chinese goods, prompting 125% retaliation from Beijing. As markets rebound and interest rate fears rise, insiders suggest change is coming—but Trump insists, “We’re doing fine with China.” Is a new phase of U.S.-China trade about to begin?

President Trump spoke to China's Xi about the ongoing tariff battle, claiming both nations are in an escalating tit-for-tat trade war. While China has denied formal negotiations, Trump is confident that a deal is imminent in the coming weeks. He indicated a "number" that would make China comfortable, but the tariffs continue to cause market uncertainty and global recession fears. With China offering exemptions for critical goods, businesses hope these measures will ease tensions and stabilize supply chains. But, Beijing is prepared for a long-term fight if necessary.

President Trump launched a fiery critique of past U.S. trade policy, accusing former leaders of enabling China’s rise by allowing unfair advantages through the World Trade Organization (WTO). He claimed China manipulated the system by branding itself a "developing nation" while gaining economic dominance. Trump also criticized U.S. officials for being complicit, saying “they allowed this to happen.” His comments come amid escalating tariff tensions and renewed trade negotiations, reflecting a hardline stance on correcting what he calls decades of economic betrayal.

China has blasted the United States for imposing new 34% tariffs, calling the move "economic bullying" and a threat to global stability. Beijing warns that the escalating tariff war may disrupt supply chains, hike consumer prices, and even spark a global recession. In response, China will impose a matching 34% tariff on all US goods by April 10 and has filed a complaint with the WTO. As markets tumble worldwide, experts warn the ongoing tit-for-tat is more about politics than policy — and it’s dragging the global economy down with it.
