Chinese Vice Premier Liu He was meeting with U.S. Trade Representative Robert Lighthizer and Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin for a third straight day on Friday after U.S. President Donald Trump hailed progress in the talks and said a deal could be announced in the next four weeks. Washington also has demanded that Beijing curb industrial subsidies and open its economy wider to U.S. companies and that it increase purchases of U.S. goods including farm and energy commodities to shrink the gaping U.S. trade deficit with China.
On Thursday, Lighthizer, who is leading the talks for the Trump administration, said there were still some “major, major issues” to resolve.
