Citing Chinese and American officials, The Wall Street Journal reported that the U.S. and China were exploring a trade deal that would “suspend further tariffs through the spring in exchange for new talks looking at big changes in Chinese economic policy.”
“The talks have been conducted, via telephone, for several weeks, and are coming to a head shortly before President Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping meet for dinner on Saturday at the end of the Group of 20 leader’s summit,” the WSJ authors Bob Davis and Lingling Wei wrote.
