The Chinese also confirmed that the US-China trade sub-agreement will be signed next week

Chinese Deputy Prime Minister Liu Ho will travel to Washington on 13 January for a three-day visit to Washington, where he will sign a partial deal to resolve the US-China trade conflict.

In the announcement, the Chinese side confirmed a press release about the date of the visit, which was flushed after US President Donald Trump unilaterally designated 15 January as the signature date in a Twitter post on 31 December. Trump also said in his post that he would visit Beijing at a later date, but that has not yet been confirmed by the Chinese. (MTI)
