(Adnkronos) – China is “currently evaluating” the possibility of starting trade negotiations with the US. This was announced by a spokesman for the Chinese Ministry of Commerce, stating that “senior US officials have repeatedly expressed their willingness to talk about tariffs with China”. “The United States has recently sent messages to China through competent parties in the hope of starting talks. China is currently evaluating” the offer, the spokesman said, stressing that Beijing’s position remains “consistent”.
“If we fight, we will fight to the end; if we talk, the door will be open,” he added, recalling that “the United States unilaterally started the tariff and trade war.” “If the United States wants to talk, they must show their sincerity and be ready to correct unfair practices and cancel unilateral tariffs,” he continued, warning that “saying one thing and doing another, even putting pressure and coercion under the pretext of negotiating, does not work with China”.
