U.S.-China trade deal

A preliminary deal may be on the way, but neither side can truly declare victory.

The deal will be inked on January 15 in Washington, Trump says, and “Phase Two” negotiations will start soon thereafter.

Trump says China will be buying “much more than” $50 billion each year from U.S. farmers. Is that possible?

A White House press call includes some more details on the agreement that was announced December 13.

The U.S. and Chinese announcements on the “phase one” deal are optimistic in tone, but their differences hint at lingering frictions.

“I’m not very optimistic about the U.S.-China bilateral relationship in the near term…There are multiple conflicts of interest between the two countries.”

Talk without the support of action means nothing. Enforcement will be the key to any deal.

In an otherwise divided Washington, there is surprising uniformity in messaging on the U.S.-China trade war.

This is not the end of the drama.

An earlier end-of-March target for a final deal has fallen by the wayside, but discussions continue.
