This decision allows specific items such as semiconductors, <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3YuVZYV\">chip-making equipment<\/a>, medical products, and aviation parts to bypass the tariff, which was <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/us-sanctions-over-100-targets-aiding-russias-invasion\/\" title=\"US Sanctions Over 100 Targets Aiding Russia&#039;s Invasion\">initially imposed<\/a> after President Trump enacted a 145% tariff on imports from China. The exemptions come as Chinese officials recognized the difficulty in sourcing thes goods from choice suppliers. Although China has withheld public announcements regarding these exemptions to avoid revealing weaknesses in its economy, they have been preparing a list since early April in response to escalating trade tensions with the U.S. While Trump has indicated ongoing communications with Chinese President Xi Jinping about trade, officials from China have claimed that no substantial conversations have taken place.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-header-search-button-mob dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search\" aria-labelledby=\"td-header-search-button\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search-inner\">\n<form method=\"get\" class=\"tdb-search-form\" action=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/\"><\/form>\n<div class=\"tdb-aj-search\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/#\" role=\"button\" aria-label=\"Search\" class=\"tdb-head-search-btn dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<h1 class=\"tdb-title-text\">China exempts some US-made goods from steep tariff<\/h1>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-title-line\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div id=\"Brid_2104853\" class=\"tpd-featured-video bridtv\"><\/div>\n<p>China has begun exempting certain U.S.-made goods from its 125% <a href=\"http:\/\/washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/tariffs\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">tariff<\/a>, according to multiple reports.<\/p>\n<p>A <em>Wall Street Journal<\/em> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wsj.com\/economy\/trade\/china-quietly-exempts-some-u-s-made-products-from-tariffs-b7bc033c?mod=hp_lead_pos4\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"report \">report <\/a>on Saturday detailed the move from <a href=\"http:\/\/washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/china\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">Chinese<\/a> officials to exempt U.S.-made semiconductors, chipmaking equipment, medical products, and aviation parts from the steep tariff it levied after President <a href=\"http:\/\/washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/donald-trump\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">Donald Trump<\/a> imposed a 145% tariff on the country.
