Leanna Byrne: 美中两国达成临时协议以缓解不断升级的贸易战，双方同意削减关税。这是一个积极的进展，但协议仅持续90天，更像是一个暂停而非彻底的解决方案。 Mariko Oi: 作为一名长期关注此事的记者，我认为美国同意将中国商品的关税从145%降至30%，而中国也将降低对美国商品的征税至10%，这确实是一个重大的缓和。我们希望在90天内达成贸易协议，以避免进一步的贸易战。协议达成后，中国和香港市场反应积极，股市有所上涨。然而，中国经济面临通缩的挑战，这令人担忧，因为物价下跌会减缓经济活动。尽管北京采取措施刺激经济，但中国经济的基本面仍然疲软，贸易战无助于改善这种情况。

From the BBC World Service: There's been a thaw in U.S.-China relations, with a 90-day deal to ease their escalating trade war. Both sides say they’ll cut tariffs by 115% — a big step, given that the U.S. was charging 145% on some Chinese goods. Plus, U.S. President Donald Trump will start his first foreign visit with a three-day Middle East tour this week. The economy will be high on the agenda.
