Beijing and EU freeze trade war over cars and rare earths
Original: Domani: Pechino e l’Ue congelano la guerra commerciale. Meno auto cinesi in cambio di terre rare Il commissario Sefcovic
The European Union and China have agreed in principle to freeze their trade dispute, according to Italian media. EU Trade Commissioner Maros Sefcovic returned to Brussels from Beijing with a draft understanding to present to leaders of the 27 member states. The reported deal would see fewer Chinese car imports in exchange for continued European access to Chinese rare earths. Chinese outlets pushed back on criticism, arguing their exports are not Europe's problem.
Why now: A reported truce in the EU-China trade conflict would ease tensions over critical raw materials and car imports.
