US-China Trade Tensions 2025: Three Likely Outcomes Amid Shifting Dynamics

27 Oct 25

As the US-China trade truce deadline approaches in November, tensions between the world’s largest trading partners are reigniting.

Against this backdrop, the upcoming late-October negotiation meeting between Presidents Trump and President Xi carries high stakes.
