China Says Negotiators Still Plan U.S. Trip despite Trump Tariff Threat
A Chinese trade team is still preparing to head to Washington for negotiations despite President Donald Trump's threat to raise tariffs later this week, Beijing said Monday.
"We are currently working on understanding the situation," said foreign ministry spokesman Geng Shuang during a regular news briefing.
"The Chinese team is currently preparing to go to the US for negotiations," Geng added, without specifying whether Beijing's top trade negotiator Liu He would make the trip.
