CHINA: China to ask U.S. to remove tariffs in exchange for ag buys in talks
Friday (RTRS sources)
- Top U.S. and Chinese trade officials will discuss plans on Friday for China to
buy more U.S. farm products, but in return, Beijing will request cancellation of
some planned and existing U.S. tariffs on Chinese imports, people briefed on the
talks told Reuters.
- Robert Lighthizer, the United States Trade Representative, U.S. Treasury
Secretary Steven Mnuchin, and Chinese Vice Premier Liu He will speak by

is roiling financial markets, disrupting supply chains and slowing global
economic growth.
