On Saturday, senior officials from Washington and Beijing concluded the first day of trade talks in Geneva, Switzerland. The president has been embroiled in a tense trade war since he raised U.S. tariffs on China to a combined 145 percent earlier this year, which prompted Beijing to retaliate with a 125-percent levy on American imports.

Following trade talks in Geneva, the US and China agreed to pause reciprocal tariffs for 90 days. President Trump called it a “total reset”, noting improved relations and ongoing discussions to address long-term trade concerns.
