Fentanyl focus of US-China talks: Washington pushes for stricter controls
Update: 2025-10-29
Description
Fentanyl-related trade tensions are taking center stage in US-China talks. US President Donald Trump says he expects to lower fentanyl-linked tariffs on China during his upcoming meeting with President Xi Jinping in South Korea. The reduction — potentially cutting current 20 percent tariffs in half — depends on Beijing’s commitment to tighter controls on the export of chemicals used to make fentanyl. The issue has long been central to economic disputes between Washington and Beijing. Al Jazeera’s Ferdia Carr reports.
