WASHINGTON—The United States’ and China’s top trade negotiators met on Oct. 10 for the first time since late July to try to find a way out of a 15-month trade war.
U.S. Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin and U.S. Trade Representative Robert Lighthizer greeted Chinese Vice Premier Liu He on the steps of the USTR office before a meeting in which they will seek to narrow differences enough to avoid a scheduled Oct. 15 tariff rate increase on $250 billion worth of Chinese goods.
