Washington, Oct 11 (TIWN) US President Donald Trump said that he will hold talks with China's Vice Premier and top trade negotiator Liu He at the White House on Friday, a meeting that comes a week before Washington is set to further ratchet up the trade war with higher tariffs on Chinese imports.
“Big day of negotiations with China. They want to make a deal, but do I? I meet with the Vice Premier tomorrow at The White House,” Trump tweeted Thursday morning. Chinese trade officials led by Liu traveled to Washington for the 13th round of high-stakes trade talks starting Thursday. It is Liu’s third trip to the U.S. since negotiations broke down significantly in May, precipitating a further escalation of the trade conflict between the world’s two largest economies.
