Officials from both sides are set to talk on Monday in London, aiming to resolve differences over tariffs and supply chains that have endangered a fragile truce between the countries.

LONDON, June 9 (Reuters) - Top U.S. and Chinese officials will sit down in London on Monday for talks aimed at defusing the high-stakes trade dispute between the two superpowers that has widened in recent weeks beyond tit-for-tat tariffs to export controls over goods and components critical to global supply chains.

Talks between the US and China kicked off in London, with the US signaling a willingness to remove restrictions on exports in exchange for assurances that China is easing limits on rare earth shipments.
