China’s top diplomat said on Thursday that his country was willing to buy more U.S. products, adding that trade talks would yield results if both sides “take more enthusiastic measures” to show goodwill and reduce “pessimistic language” in the trade dispute.
Wang Yi, China’s State Councillor and Foreign Minister, said in response to questions from Reuters that the Trump administration had shown goodwill by waiving tariffs on many Chinese products.
“So, on the Chinese side, we are willing to buy more products that are needed by the Chinese market,’’ Yi said on the sidelines of the UN General Assembly.
“We hope both sides can take more enthusiastic measures, reduce pessimistic language and actions.
“If everyone does this, talks will not only resume but will proceed and yield results.’’
