Xi and Trump find temporary truce as China plays longer game
In a recent development, Chinese President Xi Jinping and U.S. President Donald Trump have reached a temporary truce in their ongoing trade dispute. The truce was agreed upon during the G20 summit in Osaka, Japan, on June 29, 2019. The meeting between the two leaders aimed to address the escalating trade tensions that have been affecting the global economy.
During the meeting, both leaders agreed to resume trade negotiations between the two countries, with the U.S. postponing the imposition of new tariffs on Chinese goods. President Trump also announced that American companies would be allowed to continue selling products to Chinese tech giant Huawei, which had been previously blacklisted over national security concerns.
President Xi emphasized China’s willingness to resolve the trade dispute through dialogue and cooperation, highlighting the importance of stable economic relations between the two countries. He stated that China is ready to address the legitimate concerns of both sides in the negotiations.
The temporary truce has been perceived as a positive step towards easing the trade tensions that have been looming over the global economy. However, analysts suggest that China’s strategy might be focused on playing the long game, aiming to secure its economic interests in the face of the U.S. pressure.
Both leaders have expressed a desire to reach a comprehensive trade agreement that would address the underlying issues and create a more stable trade relationship between the world’s two largest economies. The next steps in the negotiations remain uncertain, but the temporary truce has provided a glimmer of hope for a potential resolution to the trade dispute in the future.
