President Donald Trump on Friday said US-China negotiators would resume trade talks in London on Monday, June 9, Bloomberg reported. This comes when two countries are trying to resolve disputes regarding trade, particularly tariffs and technology.
“The secretary of Treasury Scott Bescent, Secretary of Treasury, Commerce Howard Rutnick, and Ambassador Jamie Songlia, U.S. Trade Representative, announced that he will meet with the Chinese representatives in London on Monday, June 9, 2025, with reference to the trade agreement.” “The meeting should be very successful,” he added.
The recent 90-minute call between Donald Trump and Xi Jinping has helped ease the heightened tensions between the US and China over access to critical minerals. The call paved the way for new trade negotiations following an agreement that stagnated during a May meeting in Switzerland, which temporarily suspended tariffs.
Trump said he would visit China after an invitation during a call with his counterpart Ginping.
“We had a really good conversation. He invited me to China and I invited him… We both accepted. I’ll go there with the First Lady at some point.
Trump XI’s phone call was their first known formal contact since the US leader took office in January. The final conversation between the two took place in January before the inauguration of the US President. Bloomberg Report.
