Source: Trump announces US-China trade talks in London to take place Monday
President Donald Trump announced Friday that U.S. officials will meet with their Chinese counterparts in London on Monday to discuss trade.
The United States and China have been at a trade impasse since signing a 90-day tariff ceasefire in May. Before the pause, the U.S. imposed a 145% tariff on Chinese goods while China implemented a 125% tariff.
Trump said Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick, and U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer will meet with Chinese officials.
“I am pleased to announce that Secretary of the Treasury Scott Bessent, Secretary of Commerce Howard Lutnick, and United States Trade Representative, Ambassador Jamieson Greer, will be meeting in London on Monday, June 9, 2025, with Representatives of China, with reference to the Trade Deal,” he wrote on Truth Social.
“The meeting should go very well,” he added. “Thank you for your attention to this matter!”
Speaking on Air Force One following his comments on social media, Trump said the administration “is very far advanced on a China deal.”
The meeting’s announcement comes after Trump spoke with Chinese President Xi Jinping on Thursday.
“I just concluded a very good phone call with President Xi, of China, discussing some of the intricacies of our recently made, and agreed to, Trade Deal,” Trump said of the call. “The call lasted around an hour and a half, he added, and “resulted in a very positive conclusion for both Countries.”
Chinese state media said Xi called for greater cooperation between the countries and welcomed Trump to visit China. The two were last known to have spoken on Jan. 17, before Trump’s inauguration.
The Trump administration has taken several moves to ratchet up pressure on China aside from the tariffs.
