U.S. President Donald Trump reportedly said that the United States would eliminate all fentanyl-related tariffs on Chinese imports if Beijing takes steps to curb the export of fentanyl and its precursor chemicals.

According to a Bloomberg News report, Trump said on Friday he has spoken with China's President Xi Jinping during their summit in South Korea and added that“China's working very hard and I really believe that they have an incentive.”

The report noted that Trump has said he would halve a 20% duty related to fentanyl in their meeting.“As soon as we see that, we'll get rid of the other 10%,” Trump told reporters aboard Air Force One, according to Bloomberg.
