US-China officials to begin trade war talks in Beijing

US and Chinese officials will begin talks on Monday aimed at resolving their damaging trade dispute.Last year, both countries imposed billions of dollars of tariffs on one another’s goods.

The two-day talks mark the first formal meeting since the pair agreed to refrain from any further tariffs for 90 days.The meeting comes amid rising concern about the impact of trade tensions on the global economy.

The US delegation will be led by Deputy US Trade Representative Jeffrey Gerrish.While the temporary truce has provided some relief, there is scepticism over the possibility of a breakthrough at the meeting in Beijing.
