With Beijing rapidly running out of US imports to slap tariffs on, the Chinese government indicated on Thursday that it wouldn’t immediately retaliate against the latest US tariff escalation announced by President Trump a week ago, Bloomberg reports. Instead, it will be looking for ways to finally deescalate the trade conflict, which has dragged on for nearly 18 months.


quote:

Commerce Ministry spokesman Gao Feng said during a regular briefing in Beijing that China has options to retaliate, but thinks it should discuss with Washington the possibility of removing new tariffs.

"The most important thing at the moment is to create necessary conditions for both sides to continue negotiations," Gao said during a weekly briefing, adding that China was lodging "solemn representation" with the US.

Anyone who thinks we won't win the trade war, is sadly mistaken !!

We hold all the cards , with the deal with Japan, and the U K next, China has very few options, besides bend the knee, with Hasbro, Black & Decker and many other countries exiting, once they leave, they probably not going back!! China fricked, USA stacked !!

I agree with Trump that China must have fair trade but how many think this is China's way of putting things off until after our next election. If it is they are in for a big letdown.

China is trying to run the clock out, I agree. Trump has to hammer them to get them to truly negotiate.

More of the same "but this time we mean it" talk. GTHO as best you can and trade with them knowing up front they are never going to deliver, protect Vietnam's rights to the South China seas and trade with them and others where they desperately need us.

Well Bernie and Warren agree with Trump and Trumpians on the trade war. It has been a democrat issue for decades that Trumpians seem to have adopted and love.

Based on the post I have seen here if Trump for some reason decided not to run and a real free market conservative that wants to quit punishing Americans ran instead, it seems most here would probably vote for Sanders or Warren just to keep the trade war going.

China's next weapon in this trade war I suspect---kicking US companies out of China.

There is nothing good to come out of this trade war.

Is this really what you want to reduce holding China to account to?

“Dur duh Democrats like it so dur it must be dur wrong dur dur my Econ 101 professor dur dur said tariffs were bad dur dur.”

It’s amazing that you’re a productive member of society. Honestly.
