CHINA PRESS: Liu He, Chinese vice premier will visit Washington next week,

though other details have not yet been confirmed, Caixin reported, citing the

White House. 

  - Liu will meet with U.S. trade representatives and officials for another

round of negotiations on trade, according to White House spokeswoman Sarah

Sanders, Caixin said.

***Comments: Liu's visit to the U.S. comes earlier than some expected, shortly

after the U.S. delegation came to Beijing for trade talks with Chinese

officials. The two sides' willingness to negotiate has calmed down the markets

in recent days, though they continue to diverge on major concerns such as trade

deficit and intellectual property protection issues.
