From Bloomberg:

The US and China made “substantial progress” after two days of talks in Switzerland aimed at de-escalating a trade war, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and US Trade Representative Jamieson Greer said Sunday.
“It’s important to understand how quickly we were able to come to an agreement, which reflects that perhaps the differences were not as large as maybe thought,” Greer told reporters. “That being said, there was a lot of groundwork that went into these two days.”
Bessent and Greer said they will share more details on Monday. There was no immediate confirmation from the Chinese side.
The US announcement followed hours of meetings between Bessent, Greer and Chinese Vice Premier He Lifeng. The talks were hosted by the Swiss ambassador to the United Nations, whose residence was used as the venue for the two countries’ teams.
Tensions between the world’s two biggest economies reached a new high point after President Donald Trump steadily increased tariffs on Beijing to 145%. The duties are supposed to address China’s role in the fentanyl trade, its massive trade surplus with the US, and respond to Beijing’s retaliatory measures imposed after Trump’s opening salvo. China in response increased its tariffs on US goods to 125%.
The tariff tit-for-tat led to a standoff between the world’s two largest economies, with neither side wanting to budge and no off-ramp in sight.

Eventually, both sides acknowledged a reduction in tensions and tariffs is necessary and public talks were announced.
Fears of empty shelves may have contributed to the urgency for the meetings. Trump and his economic team have gotten pleas from retail executives who explained in meetings with senior officials that the result of sustained high tariffs would be pandemic-level shortages and supply-chain shocks.
Chinese President Xi Jinping, for his part, sought to fortify his nation’s economy ahead of the talks, but data show signs of weakness.

The US team went into the first day of talks somewhat hemmed in by their boss. Trump posted on Truth Social before the meetings even started: “80% Tariff on China seems right!” He added that it was “up to” his Treasury chief, without elaborating.
After the first day of meetings concluded, Trump chimed in, again on Truth Social, to hail “great progress” and said “much” was agreed to, while negotiators stayed mum and continued to hammer out details late into the night.
”A total reset negotiated in a friendly, but constructive, manner,” Trump said Saturday. “We want to see, for the good of both China and the U.S., an opening up of China to American business.”
Trump told reporters Friday he might speak to his Chinese counterpart after the Switzerland meetings, depending on what Bessent advised him.
The US and China already have a trade deal on the books, which was signed at the end of Trump’s first term in January 2020. At the time, the president called it “historic” and said it was “righting the wrongs of the past.”
As part of that agreement, Beijing committed to purchase more than $200 billion in additional US goods and services and open up its market to America’s agriculture and financial services sectors.
Trump repeatedly faulted the Biden administration for not enforcing the deal after China failed to live up to its promises.
