Trump says there is a good chance of a trade deal with China, Foreign Ministry: There are no winners in trade wars and tariff wars

On February 20, Foreign Ministry spokesperson Guo Jiakun hosted a regular press conference. Asked by an AFP reporter, US President Trump said yesterday that he believes a trade agreement with China is very likely. What is China's response? Has any progress been made in reaching an agreement? Guo Jiakun said that China has made clear its position on Sino-US economic and trade issues on many occasions. Trade wars and tariff wars have no winners and harm the interests of people of all countries. "We firmly oppose the US's unilateral imposition of tariffs. The two sides should resolve their respective concerns through dialogue and consultation on an equal footing and with mutual respect. China will continue to take necessary measures to firmly safeguard its legitimate rights and interests."
