US, China Trade Talks to Continue in Washington Next Week

Monday, May 7, 2018

China's top economic official will visit Washington next week to continue trade talks with Trump administration officials, the White House said on Monday, after two days of talks in Beijing last week failed to produce a breakthrough.

"We are working on something that we think will be great for everybody," White House spokeswoman Sarah Sanders told reporters. "China's top economic adviser, the vice premier (Liu He), will be coming here next week to continue the discussions with the president's economic team," she added.
