China Denies Current Trade Talks with U.S., Urges End to ‘Unilateral’ Tariffs
China’s Stance on U.S. Trade Relations
There are currently no ongoing economic or trade discussions between China and the U.S. This statement comes from He Yadong, the spokesperson for the Ministry of Commerce. He firmly stated, “At present, there are absolutely no negotiations on the economy and trade between China and the U.S. If the U.S. continues down its current path, it will complicate matters further.”
Implication of Tariffs
This comment emphasizes China’s desire to have unilateral tariffs lifted, which they argue are detrimental to both parties. The absence of talks raises concerns over future trade dynamics.
