トランプ大統領だいとうりょう“大おおきな進展しんてん”米べい中ちゅう貿易ぼうえき協議きょうぎ 初日しょにち終おえSNSで強調きょうちょう

As the United States and China continue to impose tariffs of over 100% on each other, trade talks between senior officials from both countries, held in Switzerland, have concluded their first day of discussions.

The second day of talks is expected to take place on the 11th, and President Trump emphasized on social media that significant progress has been made.

Since the Trump administration imposed reciprocal tariffs, the first official talks between senior U.S. and Chinese officials were held on the 10th in Geneva, Switzerland. From the U.S. side, Treasury Secretary Bessent and U.S. Trade Representative Greer participated, while Vice Premier He Lifeng, who oversees economic policy, attended from the Chinese side.

According to Reuters, the talks on the first day continued until the evening local time, and are expected to continue on the second day as well.

Regarding this, President Trump posted on social media on the night of the 10th morning of the 11th Japan time, saying, Very good discussions were held in China and Switzerland.

A lot of things were discussed, and many agreements were reached.

Negotiations regarding the complete reset were conducted in a friendly and constructive manner.

We hope that China will be opened to American companies for the benefit of both China and the United States.

He emphasized that there had been significant progress.

Trade friction between the United States and China has intensified, with both sides imposing tariffs of over 100% on each others goods. The Chinese government has expressed its firm opposition to the U.S. tariff measures, demanding their removal and indicating that it will not make any easy compromises.

On the other hand, President Trump has suggested that, depending on the outcome of future negotiations, there is a possibility of reducing the additional tariffs on China. Attention is focused on whether the second day of talks can lead to an easing of trade friction.
