Beijing Rejects U.S. Accusations of Violating Tariff Reduction Agreement - Jordan News
China on Monday rejected U.S. accusations that it had violated a tariff reduction agreement reached between the world's two largest economies. Last month, Beijing and Washington agreed to a temporary and mutual reduction of tariffs burdening both sides for a period of 90 days, following high-level talks held in Geneva. اضافة اعلان However, U.S. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick told Fox News Sunday that Beijing was "delaying the implementation of the agreement." In response on Monday, Beijing stated that Washington had "made false accusations and unreasonably blamed China for violating the agreement, which seriously contradicts the facts." In a statement, China's Ministry of Commerce said it "strongly rejects these groundless accusations." Last week, U.S. President Donald Trump also accused China of having "completely violated the agreement," though he did not provide specific details. The Chinese Ministry of Commerce maintained that it is "firm in protecting its rights and interests and sincere in implementing the agreement." It further noted that Washington has "repeatedly imposed discriminatory and restrictive measures against China," citing export controls on AI chips and the revocation of visas for Chinese students in the U.S. China urged the U.S. "to meet it halfway, immediately correct its wrongful actions, and jointly uphold the consensus reached during the Geneva trade talks." Failing that, "China will continue to take firm and strong measures to defend its legitimate rights and interests." — AFP

Trump, Xi will 'likely' talk this week: White House
US President Donald Trump and China's President Xi Jinping will likely hold a long-awaited call later this week, the White House said Monday, as trade tensions between the world's two biggest economies ratchet back up. Trump reignited strains with China last week when he accused the world's second-biggest economy of violating a deal that had led both countries to temporarily reduce huge tit-for-tat tariffs. "The two leaders will likely talk this week," Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt told reporters outside the West Wing when asked whether Trump and Xi would speak. Trump and Xi have yet to have any confirmed contact more than five months since the Republican returned to power, despite frequent claims by the US president that a call is imminent. Trump even said in a Time Magazine interview in April that Xi had called him -- but Beijing insisted that there had been no call recently. Stock markets around the world mostly slid on Monday as the US-China tensions resurfaced. Trump in early April introduced sweeping worldwide tariffs that targeted China most heavily of all, accusing other countries of "ripping off" the United States and running trade imbalances. Beijing and Washington last month agreed to slash staggeringly high tariffs on each other for 90 days after talks between top officials in Geneva. But Trump and top US officials Washington officials last week accused China of violating the deal, with Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick saying Beijing was "slow-rolling" the agreement in comments to Fox News Sunday. Beijing rejected those "bogus" US claims on Monday, and accused Washington of introducing "a number of discriminatory restrictive measures."
