Delegation of China will travel to the US for signing agreement
A group headed by Deputy Prime Minister Liu He will go to the US capital on January 13 to begin phase one of the "trade agreement"
On January 13, a delegation from China will travel to US territory in order to sign what will be phase one of the trade agreement.
This group, headed by Deputy Prime Minister Liu He, planned to make this trip earlier this month. However, all changes after President Donald Trump announced that the signing would take place on January 15.
The US president said on December 31st that by the 15th of this month the first phase of the trade agreement with China in the house would be closed in the presence of senior Beijing officials.
“I will be signing our very large and broad phase one of the trade agreement with China on January 15th. The ceremony will take place at the White House. High-level representatives from China will be present,” Trump said in his Twitter account.
At first, the president had pointed out that in the act of ratification of the agreement he would have the presence of Xi.
After almost 18 months of trade war and the subsequent escalation of tariffs, the two sides announced in December 2019 that they had reached a partial agreement that includes the progressive withdrawal of levies and the increase in Chinese purchases of US products.
