The US and China have reached an agreement to accelerate shipments of rare earth minerals to America, as part of ongoing efforts to resolve the trade dispute between the world's two largest economies. On June 27, China’s Ministry of Commerce confirmed the details of the agreement, which aims to facilitate rare earth exports and ease technology restrictions.
Although this agreement represents a positive step after months of trade uncertainty and disruptions since Donald Trump took office again in January, it also underscores that a final, comprehensive trade deal between the two economic rivals remains a distant goal.
China boasts strong international ties between most of the world’s superpowers, largely due to its production capacities, which have turned the Chinese economy into a manufacturing model. In fact, in addition to harboring the largest national population in the world, China is also the world's largest exporter. Besides the US, many other countries depend on China’s exports to fulfill their domestic consumption needs.
