China and the United States will conduct a new round of trade talks next week to avoid further tit-for-tat tariff escalation. US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent expected to meet Chinese Vice Premier He Lifeng in Malaysia, with US Trade Representative Jamieson Greer also participating. US President Donald Trump said he would meet Chinese President Xi Jinping at the APEC summit in South Korea in November and called the high cumulative tariff rate unsustainable. China expanded export controls on rare earths, prompting US threats of 100 percent tariffs and potential export controls on critical software. Both sides agreed to hold new negotiations as soon as possible.
