  • WASHINGTON (Reuters) -- The United States and China renewed a science cooperation agreement on Friday, the U.S. State Department said, this time with "robust national security guardrails," despite objections from Republicans who argue that the decision should have been left to the incoming Trump administration.

The article from Nikkei Asia discusses the renewal of a science and technology cooperation agreement between China and the United States, which was set to expire. This agreement, initially signed in 1979, facilitates collaboration in various scientific fields including agriculture, health, space, and environmental protection. Despite geopolitical tensions, both nations have agreed to extend the deal, highlighting the mutual benefits of scientific exchange. The renewal comes at a time when U.S.-China relations are strained over issues like trade, technology transfer, and intellectual property rights. The agreement's extension is seen as a positive step towards maintaining open channels for scientific research and innovation, potentially fostering better bilateral relations. However, the specifics of the new terms or any modifications to address current political climates were not detailed in the article.
