China calls for talks with USA as equals
China said that trade issues with the United States can only be resolved through talks as equals
They also said it will press on with the steady opening of its economy regardless of U.S. actions.
“The only correct choice in resolving trade friction between China and the U.S. is through talks based on sincerity and equality,” Commerce Ministry spokesman Gao Feng told reporters at a regular briefing.
“Whatever repressive measures the U.S. adopts, China will firmly and steadily push forward reform and opening at its own pace.”
Some Chinese firms and foreign companies in China have been affected by the U.S. tariffs and are working to mitigate the impact, Gao said, without elaborating.
“We are confident that foreign trade will maintain steady momentum... and will roll out targeted policies to safeguard the legitimate rights of all firms in China, including foreign-invested firms,” said Gao.
