President Trump said China has communicated to negotiate an agreement.
Another official said that the Administration has already been working on the problems of the supply chain for some time in anticipation of the imposition of the tariffs.
Medicines, semiconductors, electronic devices and critical minerals could face supply pressure after the White House and Beijing imposed a series of retaliation rates.

China’s encumbrances are part of a larger tariff regime that Trump unleashed the countries of the countries: some of the rates that are not from China were paused partial at the end, while Trump seeks to negotiate agreements with US business partners. The commercial war has alarmed investors and fueled the fears of inflation and an economic slowdown.
