U.S. and Chinese security agents work together outside the U.S. Trade Representative offices as trade negotiations continue inside May 10, 2019 in Washington, DC.BEIJING - China warned on Monday that it will"never surrender to external pressure" after the United States ordered tariffs on almost all Chinese exports.
"China will never surrender to external pressure," foreign ministry spokesman Geng Shuang said at a regular briefing Monday."We have said many times that imposing tariffs will not solve any problems," Geng said, adding that China hoped the United States will work with Beijing to reach a"mutually beneficial and win-win agreement."
White House economic advisor Larry Kudlow told US media on Sunday that Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping could meet next month on the sidelines of the G20 summit to hash out their differences on trade, although no new talks are scheduled."The two presidents maintain contact through various means," Geng said, without confirming a possible meeting between the two leaders.
