China commerce ministry says it has proactively dealt with U.S. trade frictions

BEIJING (Reuters) - China's Commerce Ministry has "proactively dealt with" trade frictions with the United States this year, it said on Sunday after an annual work conference.

The ministry has implemented the decisions of the central government and "resolutely safeguarded the interests of the country and the people", it said in a statement on its website.

The United States and China cooled their trade war this month, announcing a "Phase one" agreement that would reduce some U.S. tariffs in exchange for what U.S. officials said would be a big jump in Chinese purchases of American farm products and other goods.

China's commerce ministry has said it is in close touch with the United States on signing the trade deal, and both sides are still going through necessary procedures before the signing.

Latest comments

Is rhetoric from China such as this part of the trade deal agreement; to keep saying we they are on track with signing but seemingly without getting any closer to a signing? A Trump demand so that the market keeps up?
trump is the one who insist on saying it when there will be translation delays and surprise amendments to add to the 2yr old stupid bitching...lol
President Orange Crush can't afford to mess this chance up.
