BEIJING—China and the United States will hold vice ministerial level trade talks in Beijing on Jan. 7 and Jan. 8, with the two countries under pressure to end a trade war.
For much of the past year, the trade war has disrupted the flow of hundreds of billions of dollars worth of goods and stoked fears of a global economic slowdown.
A team led by Deputy U. S. Trade Representative Jeffrey Gerrish will come to China to have “positive and constructive discussions” with Chinese counterparts, China’s commerce ministry said in a statement on its website.
In a separate statement on Friday, USTR said the delegation will also include Under Secretaries from the U. S. Departments of Agriculture, Commerce, Energy and Treasury, as well as senior officials from those agencies and the White House.
