China Backs Down: Drops 125% Tariff On Major U.S. Exports After White House Calls Beijing’s Strategy ‘Unsustainable’

"China Is Also Lifting Tariffs on Other Key Products
The exemption on ethane follows other recent waivers issued by China on high-demand items like pharmaceuticals, aircraft engines, and microchips. These moves suggest Beijing is recalibrating its strategy in response to economic pressure and supply chain dependencies. "
