President Donald Trump has moderated his previously confrontational approach toward China in an effort to secure a summit with Chinese President Xi Jinping and negotiate a trade agreement. This strategic shift includes a willingness to address issues surrounding rare earth elements and a relaxation of restrictions on Nvidia's sale of H20 chips. Additionally, Trump is considering postponing the implementation of the 145% tariff on Chinese goods, which came into effect on April 9, 2025, to maintain operations at U.S. auto factories. These moves aim to revive dialogue amid ongoing trade and geopolitical tensions between the two countries during Trump's second term.
