It stated that China will retain the additional 10% tariff. The report noted the announcement was made by the Customs Tariff Commission of the State Council on Monday. ### Centre - The Economic Times, the single centre-rated report, also led with China extending the suspension of the 24% tariff on US goods by two months and retaining the 10% duty. It cited Reuters, which reported an official statement by the finance ministry. The report mentioned the extension formalised an understanding reached between US President Donald Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping during their meeting in South Korea in late October 2025. ### Right - The four right-rated reports from CNBC-TV18, berlingske.dk, BT, and Times of India all focused on China extending the suspension of the 24% tariff on US imports for two months. They also noted that China is retaining the 10% tariff. Berlingske.dk and BT stated that China extended a suspension of tariffs on US goods in November 2025 and has now extended it again. Times of India added that this extension comes in light of a prior agreement made between the leaders of both nations, effective from November 10, 2025, and signifies ongoing trade discussions. **Provisional coverage gap:** left.
