A phone call last week between President Donald Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping led to another round of trade meetings in London.

A Chinese delegation led by Vice Premier He Lifeng held talks with U.S. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and Trade Representative Jamieson Greer at Lancaster House, an ornate 200-year-old mansion near Buckingham Palace.

China’s Commerce Ministry said over the weekend that it had approved some export licenses for rare-earth-related products, a move seen as a goodwill gesture.
