US President Donald Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping may not be able to sign a partial trade deal until December, and two US locations have been ruled out for their highly anticipated meeting, reported the South China Morning Post.
The two sides have been trying to negotiate a limited trade deal that would entail the US dropping some tariffs on Chinese imports in exchange for Beijing resuming purchases of American farm goods and other products.
The US-China trade war that Trump began has been a drag on both nation’s economies, and the leaders had initially expected to take a step toward resolving it ahead of the 2020 US elections at an international summit in Chile this month. The summit was cancelled because of protests in the capital, Santiago.
