The Ministry of Foreign Affairs: China and the United States have not consulted or negotiated on the tariff issue

On April 28, Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Guo Jiakun hosted a regular press conference. According to a reporter's question, it is reported that President Trump said in an interview with Time magazine on April 22 that President Xi Jinping called him. What is China's comment on this? Is there any negotiation between China and the United States? In this regard, Guo Jiakun said that as far as I know, there has been no phone call between the two heads of state recently. I would like to reiterate that China and the United States have not consulted or negotiated on the tariff issue. (CCTV News)
