U.S. and China agree on trade deal ‘enforcement offices,’ says Treasury Secretary GlobeBusiness

“As soon as we’re ready and we have this done, he’s ready and willing to meet with President Xi and it’s important for the two leaders to meet and we’re hopeful we can do this quickly, but we’re not going to set an arbitrary deadline,” Mnuchin added. The Chinese commerce ministry on Thursday confirmed that senior trade negotiators from both countries discussed the remaining issues in a phone call following the last round of talks in Washington.
