U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer said on Monday that China’s willingness to have another round of trade talks with the United States is a “good sign,” but suggested that there might not be any significant breakthroughs resulting from these negotiations.

“I don’t expect some kind of enormous breakthrough today,” Greer said during an appearance on CNBC’s “Squawk Box” program. “What I expect is continued monitoring and checking in on the implementation of our agreement thus far.”
