President Donald Trump has announced a major development in U.S.-China trade talks, revealing that China has agreed to “open up” to U.S. businesses and suspend trade barriers. This comes after a high-stakes negotiation involving top U.S. and Chinese officials, resulting in a 90-day pause on most tariffs. Trump highlighted this as a key breakthrough in the discussions led by Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and Trade Rep. Jamieson Greer. The agreement is expected to ease tensions and create a temporary window for further economic cooperation between the two global powers.

The United States and Ukraine have signed a landmark deal to share profits from future mineral sales, ending months of tense negotiations. The agreement establishes a joint reconstruction fund and signals long-term U.S. commitment to Ukraine’s sovereignty and recovery. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent says the deal reflects a broader peace strategy. As the U.S. counters China’s rare earth dominance, Ukraine's vast reserves of lithium, titanium, and graphite become critical.

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.

Asian markets surged after the U.S. and China held "substantial" trade talks in Geneva, offering hope for a resolution to the tariff war that has shaken global markets. With earlier tariffs reaching as high as 145% on Chinese goods and 125% in retaliation, fears of a recession had loomed large.

The WTO praised the talks as a "significant step forward," while U.S. futures, oil, and the dollar all climbed on optimism of easing tensions.
