President Trump said that he is not looking for a summit with Chinese President Xi Jinping, pushing back on reporting that the tariff talks this week<\/a> could set the groundwork for a meeting with his counterpart.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Fake News is reporting that I am SEEKING a \u2018Summit\u2019 with President Xi of China. This is not correct, I am not SEEKING anything!\u201d Trump said on Truth Social<\/a>. \u201cI may go to China, but it would only be at the invitation of President Xi, which has been extended. Otherwise, no interest! Thank you for your attention to this matter.\u201d<\/p>\n

Talks between the U.S. and China are going on in Stockholm this week with Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and his counterparts,\u00a0which marks the third round of talks<\/a> between the two nations.<\/p>\n

The meeting could set up an extended tariff truce<\/a>, which could lead to a meeting with Trump and Xi later this year,\u00a0NBC News<\/a> reported.<\/p>\n

China and the U.S. are facing an Aug. 12 deadline<\/a> following agreements announced in May and June that brought down mutually imposed triple-digit tariffs. For other trading partners<\/a>, Trump has set an Aug. 1 deadline<\/a> for the resumption of tariffs.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have a good relationship with China,” Trump said Monday. “China\u2019s tough.”<\/p>\n

The president last month said Xi was \u201cextremely hard to make a deal\u201d with and the two leaders have had a fraught relationship<\/a> in recent years.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
