China initiated tariff adjustments on US imports following a mutual agreement with Washington to implement a 90-day suspension of punitive duties after talks in Geneva.

The Customs Tariff Commission of the State Council announced that it would suspend 24 percentage points of the additional ad valorem duty on specified US goods for an initial period of 90 days, while maintaining a 10% rate on those same items.
