Trump says China deal 'done,' Beijing to supply rare earths
U.S. President Donald Trump touted Wednesday an agreement reached between Washington and Beijing after two days of trade talks, saying China would supply "magnets, and any necessary rare earths" to the world's biggest economy.
The issue of rare earth exports was a key sticking point in the London negotiations, and Trump added that Washington, in turn, would allow Chinese students to remain at U.S. colleges after the deal, which is subject to his and Chinese leader Xi Jinping's final approval.
