Trade Representative Jamieson Greer said China has been complying with the terms of the bilateral trade agreements and that the US is constantly monitoring commitments made by China in a bid to maintain a stable trade relationship.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cWith China, it\u2019s always we verify and we monitor and we watch the commitments. The commitments are quite specific,\u201d Greer said Sunday on Fox News\u2019\u00a0The Sunday Briefing<\/em>. \u201cSo all of these things that we\u2019ve agreed to with the Chinese recently are very concrete, we can monitor them with some ease, and so far, we\u2019re seeing that they\u2019re in compliance.\u201d<\/p>\n

Greer said China has gotten approximately \u201ca third\u201d of the way through its soybean purchase commitment for this growing season.<\/p>\n

Bloomberg previously\u00a0reported\u00a0that after a\u00a0series of orders\u00a0placed in late October \u2014 the first of this season \u2014 China\u2019s purchases of American soybeans appeared to have stalled.\u00a0<\/p>\n

President Donald Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping in late October agreed to extend a tariff truce, roll back export controls and reduce other trade barriers. But some elements of the deal \u2014 including the soybean purchases, sale of social media app TikTok and an increase in licenses to export critical rare earths from China \u2014 remain in progress.<\/p>\n

US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and Greer held a video call with Chinese Vice Premier He Lifeng on Friday, according to China\u2019s state-run news agency Xinhua, during which the officials had an \u201cin-depth and constructive\u201d discussion in which they vowed to keep stable ties and address \u201crespective concerns\u201d on trade and the economy, the outlet said.<\/p>\n

Bessent on Sunday told CBS News\u2019\u00a0Face the Nation<\/em>\u00a0that China will not speed up purchases, but they are still expected to take place this crop season and said soybean prices are up 12% to 15% since the agreement with China. He also said he divested from a soybean farm to comply with an\u00a0ethics agreement.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Trump administration is expected to release its long-awaited farm aid plan this week, US Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins said in a cabinet meeting last Tuesday.<\/p>\n

Asked whether chipmakers like Nvidia should give China advanced chips or if doing so would pose a security risk to the US, Greer expressed a need for the US to be cautious.<\/p>\n

\u201cMy own view is we need to be very cautious about this,\u201d Greer said on Fox News. \u201cWe want companies\u2019 bottom lines to do well, but as policymakers, we need to make sure that the national security is placed first and foremost, and that\u2019s why you\u2019ve heard President Trump talk about the types of chips that maybe would be restricted and there\u2019s always an open discussion on where that threshold lies, and it changes over time.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
