Coresight Research July 10, 2019 Executive SummaryWe look at recent developments in the US-China trade dispute and implications for agriculture. On June 29, US President Donald Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping met on the on the sidelines of the G20 summit and agreed to resume trade talks, leading to a temporary truce. The US committed to not levying additional tariffs on the $250 billion worth of Chinese imports already subject to a 25% levy, not to impose taiffs on a further $300 billion worth of Chinese goods that had previously been threatened with tariffs and a softened stance on Huawei.
