China says trade negotiations USA

new york - In a new escalation of the trade war with the United States, China canceled planned trade negotiations on import duties. According to the Wall Street Journal, a visit by Deputy Prime Minister Liu He to Washington will not be held next week. A delegation that would prepare the visit also stays at home.

According to the newspaper, the new import tariffs that the US imports on 200 billion dollars of Chinese goods are the reason. These rates take effect on Monday. In response to this, China also announced last week to introduce levies of 5 to 10 percent on 5207 American products with a total import value of 60 billion dollars.

The US Treasury Department had suggested, according to the paper, to talk further.
