What's ahead for US-China tariffs, trade talks? Top experts weigh in
After months of chest-thumping, accusations and threats, look for US-China trade relations to weather an uneasy pause as the giants retreat from extremist positions, guard against backtracking and alter the negotiating dynamic toward an eventual agreement, analysts and former US officials say. The breather follows this month's London sit-down after the two engaged in a high-stakes tariff battle then went for each other's jugulars, with China blocking rare earth exports and Washington choking off jet engines and semiconductor software. 'Absolutely the trend lines point in the direction of a truce, a pause, a respite in US-China tensions,' said Jeremy Chan, a senior analyst at Eurasia Group. 'We're seeing signs of short-term stability that weren't there even a month ago.' The pause, which went into effect on May 12, is set to last three months if it is not extended. That is likely to result in US tariffs being capped at 55 per cent and China's at 10 per cent, according to analysts, with Washington using the hiatus to ensure that Beijing resumes rare earths exports and Beijing seeking more organised negotiations to moderate Trump's unpredictable approach. 05:19 How are Chinese citizens feeling the effects of the US-China tariff war?

A pause that refreshes? What's ahead for US-China tariffs and trade talks
After months of chest-thumping, accusations and threats, look for US-China trade relations to weather an uneasy pause as the giants retreat from extremist positions, guard against backtracking and alter the negotiating dynamic toward an eventual agreement, analysts and former US officials say. The breather follows this month's London sit-down after the two engaged in a high-stakes tariff battle then went for each other's jugulars, with China blocking rare earth exports and Washington choking off jet engines and semiconductor software.

And while the Iran crisis has added uncertainty , its probable impact on any US-China deal is expected to be minimal. 'The blow-up in the Middle East will not materially add to the already aggravated state of US-China ties,' said Sourabh Gupta at the Institute for China-America Studies in Washington. 'It will be limited to loud rhetoric.'

Two London restaurants have been named in the 50 best in the world
Every year, the prestigious World's 50 Best holds a ceremony to crown the 50 very best restaurants on the planet. Earlier this month the extended list (from 51 to 100) was revealed, and two London restos featured. Now the top 50 has been unveiled at an awards ceremony in Turin. Now in its 23rd year, the 2025 list comprises eateries from 32 cities and 22 countries, with 10 new entries and four re-entries. In the ranking, two London restaurants were crowned as one of the world's 50 best in 2025. High-end Mexican restaurant Kol came in 49th place. The Michelin-starred spot in Marylebone is known for its impeccable presentation, and for making Mexican dishes with British ingredients. Helmed by ex-Noma and Noma Mexico chef Santiago Lastra, some of Kol's best-renowned dishes include a langoustine taco, and a whole grilled octopus with bone marrow. The other London restaurant to make the list was Ikoyi, coming in 15th place. According to the World's 50 Best, co-founders Jeremy Chan and Iré Hassan-Odukale have 'created a culinary style that defies categorisation'. The swish joint on the Strand blends West African and Asian spices with British vegetables, meat and fish to create a unique blind tasting menu. Stand out dishes include a refined take on jollof rice and the plantain dish, which has taken on different iterations over the years. When Time Out visited Ikoyi when it opened in 2017, we called it 'a thrilling anomaly even in London's diverse food scene'. Check out the full list on the World's 50 Best website here.
