US President Donald Trump has hailed a recent meeting with Chinese leader Xi Jinping as an "amazing success", marking a significant shift in the countries' trade relationship.
In a press statement, Trump announced that China agreed to cut tariffs by 10 percentage points and to allow the export of rare earth elements, a crucial component used in cutting-edge technologies such as smartphones and military equipment.
Furthermore, Beijing has reportedly agreed to increase its purchases of American soybeans and crack down on the illicit trade of fentanyl, a deadly opioid that has been linked to thousands of US overdose deaths.
While details of the agreement remain scarce, experts suggest that this sudden about-face from China's stance could be driven by growing economic pressure, particularly in light of the ongoing US-China trade war.

just heard about this new trade deal between the US and china 
gotta say, 10 percentage point cut on tariffs is kinda cool 
can't wait to see how this affects our economy 
rare earth elements are so important for tech 
military equipment too 
hope china starts taking fentanyl seriously it's a huge problem for the world 
and increasing soybean imports will help american farmers 
. But hey, at least China agreed to cut some tariffs, right? 
It's still not like they're gonna start buying up all our soybeans or something 
. All this talk of trade wars and whatnot makes me nostalgic for the good ol' days when we didn't have all these complicated global relationships 
. Still, it's cool to see some progress, even if it doesn't necessarily mean everything is gonna work out 
.
! Trump is actually getting what he wanted from Xi Jinping, which means China is finally willing to make some concessions on trade. The 10 percentage point tariff cut is a big win for American businesses and farmers who have been struggling with the ongoing trade war 
. Still, kudos to Trump for getting some results from his meeting with Xi - now let's see how this plays out in real life 
, it's all about pragmatism now! The fact that China is willing to make these concessions speaks volumes about their desire to stabilize global trade and reduce tensions with the US. It's also a win-win for the American farmers who are going to get those soybean orders 
. The fentanyl thing is also a major plus - we can't afford to have that poison flowing across borders anymore 
. It'll be interesting to see how this agreement holds up in the long run, but for now, I'm just happy to see some progress being made 
!
10 percentage point tariff cut? That sounds like a pretty big concession for China, especially if they're just trying to appease Trump and get back into the good books with the US. Rare earth elements are basically a critical component for modern tech, so why would China just hand those over? It feels like they're being forced to give up something they want to keep an eye on... 
and rare earth elements? like we can't even start to imagine what kind of tech deals are going down here 
. I mean, who would've thought we'd get a breakthrough with China after all the drama? The 10% cut in tariffs is huge, that's gonna make our exports fly to China and create jobs back home 
. I'm no expert, but it just makes sense - we need a more stable trade relationship with China, they're such a huge market and all that tech stuff needs rare earth elements 
. But seriously, it's a big win for US farmers with those soybean deals

. And let's not forget about the soybeans - it's great to see China being more willing to support US farmers. Of course, there are still some details we don't know, but I'm definitely feeling optimistic about this shift in trade policy 
. It's like a weight's been lifted off both countries' shoulders, and now they can start working together instead of at each other 
.
about fentanyl tho, it's still a major issue, hope china really cracks down on it. 
this is actually good news for once, lets keep it going
