U.S. and Chinese officials finished two days of talks in Stockholm on Tuesday that were aimed at tackling longstanding economic disputes and stepping back from an escalating trade war between the world's two biggest economies, APA reports citing Reuters.
While announcing no breakthroughs, China's top trade negotiator Li Chenggang said the two sides agreed to push for an extension of a 90-day tariff truce struck in mid-May, without specifying when and for how long such an extension could come into force.
The talks could pave the way for a meeting between U.S. President Donald Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping later in the year, though Trump denied going out of his way to seek one and Chinese officials did not mention it.
