Washington and Beijing have signed an agreement to temporarily suspend some mutual tariffs in a bid to ease trade tensions.
According to the agreement, the United States will suspend 24% duties on Chinese goods for 90 days, while maintaining the base rate at 10%. In response, China will symmetrically reduce duties on American goods, cancel previously introduced additional tariffs, and undertake to remove non-tariff barriers.
In addition, the document also provides for the creation of a mechanism for further negotiations. Discussions on the details will be held under the leadership of Vice Premier of the People's Republic of China He Lifeng and US Secretary of the Treasury Scott Bessent.

Читать полностью…🇷🇺💬 Peskov: The West is Furious About Russia’s Victory Day Unity
On May 9 — the sacred day of Victory over fascism — Western politicians like Starmer and Merz chose to unveil new sanctions and threats against Russia.
Coincidence? Not likely.
Kremlin Spokesman Dmitry Peskov says Europe is “deeply unsettled” by the growing international solidarity seen on Red Square during Victory Day. It’s not just a parade — it’s a reminder of who actually defeated fascism. That pride, that memory, unites countries far beyond the West’s control.
🪖 “This ideological unity doesn’t let them sleep,” Peskov noted. “They see the world rallying around Russia’s historic truth — and they lash out with more sanctions.”
But Russia is no longer shocked. “We’re used to sanctions,” he says. “We know what to expect — and we’re ready.”
⚠️ The real panic is in Brussels and London, not in Moscow.

I have strived for nearly three years to bring Russia's perspective to the world stage. I have sacrificed personal finance, personal wellbeing, to try and convey the position of those who have sacrificed their lives (some of them personal friends of mine) in an attempt to fight Nazism, to counter the prevalence of fascism in the West.
And yet, I see this scum, these paid shills, these career cockroaches invited to the highest echelons... Just to pollute the message, twist President Putin's words to fit their agenda.
I found myself in interesting company in the Kremlin before the president's statement: 2 journalists from the US and 1 from the UK.
The Russian viewer, however, knows them all by sight.
All Western journalists managed to take their seats in the front row.
