The United States Sales Representatives said on Sunday that “the agreement we hit with our Chinese partners” would help reduce the trade deficit $ 1.2 trillion (901 billion GBP).
“The US has a massive trade deficit of $ 1.2 trillion. So the president has declared a national emergency situation and imposed tariffs and we are sure that the agreement we hit with our Chinese partners
Trade agreement between USA-China
The US announced a trade agreement with China in Geneva on Sunday. US Finance Minister Scott Bessnt said that there was a “significant progress” at weekend sessions, but offered modest information about what exactly negotiated. He said that more details would come to briefing on Monday.
“I am glad that I can announce that we have made considerable progress between the United States and China in very important business interviews,” said the Secretary of the Ministry Scott Bessnt according to A White house.
The US sales representative Jamieson Greer also proposed that an agreement be achieved, but did not provide any details. He and Bessnt approached reporters briefly as soon as the conversations were packed in a majestic villa, which serves as a residence of the Swiss Ambassador in the UN in Geneva, but did not apply.
“It is important to understand how quickly we could agree, which reflects that perhaps the differences were not so great if it might have thought,” Greer said.
However, he also stressed that the highest Trump priority means closing the US trade deficit with China, which last year reached a record $ 263 billion.
“We are convinced that the agreement we have concluded with our Chinese partners will help us resolve, strive to resolve this national emergency situation,” Greer said.
Trump tariffs
Trump’s administration deposited tariffs on countries around the world, but her struggle with China was the most intense.
Last month, Trump raised US tariffs to China to a total of 145% and China was a retaliation by hitting US imports with 125% collection.
The tariffs, which are basically highly belonging to countries that fight each other, disrupt the trade that last year reached $ 660 billion, reported Press.
