🌐💼 A spokesperson for the Chinese Embassy in the U.S. dismissed recent claims by American officials about ongoing tariff negotiations between the two nations. The denial, issued on Friday, emphasized that "no consultations or negotiations" have taken place, contradicting U.S. statements.
🗣️ "Whoever caused the knot should be the one to untie it," the spokesperson stated, referencing the U.S.-initiated tariff war that began in 2018. The remarks highlight lingering tensions as both economies grapple with trade disputes. Analysts say the lack of dialogue risks further strain on global supply chains, already shaken by pandemic-era disruptions.
💡 The statement underscores Beijing’s stance that Washington must take accountability for resolving the trade impasse. Will this spark new diplomatic efforts or widen the gap? Stay tuned for updates! 🔍📉
