BEIJING: China may have no interest in continuing trade negotiations with the US now, as it sees little “sincerity” in US President Donald Trump’s recent approach, according to commentaries run by state media outlets Friday.
If the U.S. doesn’t make any new moves that truly show sincerity, then it is meaningless for its officials to come to China and have trade talks, according to Taoran Notes, a WeChat blog run by state-owned Economic Daily.
The U.S. has been talking about wanting to continue the negotiations, but in the meantime it has been playing “little tricks to disrupt the atmosphere,” it wrote, citing Trumps steps this week to curb Chinese telecom giant Huawei Technologies Co. The blog reiterated tariff removal, achievable purchase plans and a balanced agreement text as China’s three main concerns, which were first revealed by Vice Premier Liu He. They mark the official stance as much as the will of the Chinese public, it wrote.
