经过了两天马拉松式的谈判，中国和美国经贸官员在伦敦的磋商终于告一段落。

中国商务部国际贸易谈判代表兼副部长李成钢表示，双方对6月5日元首通话共识，以及5月10日内瓦会谈共识，达成了框架。美国商务部长卢特尼克也说，双方已达成框架来落实日内瓦共识。下一步就是——让美国总统特朗普和中国国家主席习近平批准。

中美伦敦磋商，谈出了一个“框架”，这“框架”有什么意涵？特朗普总统一再抱怨，中国“不好对付”。中国最近打出“稀土牌”，这项战术是否发挥了决定性作用？在这场持久战中，谁又有条件撑得更久？

这期的早报播客《东谈西论》，听主持人韩咏红与新加坡管理大学李光前商学院副教授傅方剑以及美国德州山姆休士顿州立大学政治系副教授翁履中一同分析中美达成“框架协议”的背景与意义，以及中方打出“稀土牌”的效果。

After two days of intensive talks in London, Chinese and U.S. trade officials have reached a framework agreement, following up on prior discussions between their heads of state and earlier talks in Geneva.

China’s Vice Commerce Minister Li Chenggang said the deal builds on the June 5 call between Presidents Xi Jinping and Donald Trump and the May 10 Geneva meeting. US Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick confirmed both sides had agreed on steps to implement the Geneva consensus. Final approval now rests with Xi and Trump.

While details of the framework remain unclear, questions linger over whether China’s recent move to leverage rare earth exports influenced the outcome. As tensions persist, observers are watching to see which side is better positioned for the long haul.

In this episode of the Global Heartbeat podcast, Fu Fangjian, Associate Professor of Finance at Singapore Management University’s Lee Kong Chian School of Business and Dr. Dennis Lu-Chung Weng, Associate Professor of Political Science at Sam Houston State University, join host Han Yonghong to discuss the latest breakthrough in US–China trade talks, the political stakes behind the London framework deal, and whether economic pressure tactics—like China’s rare earth leverage—are shifting the balance in this strategic rivalry.

Hosted by Lianhe Zaobao’s Associate Editor, Han Yong Hong, Global Heartbeat is a Mandarin weekly news and current affairs podcast that is updated every Tuesday, 7.00 PM SGT. It is available on zaobao.sg, Apple Podcast, Spotify and other podcast platforms.
