US to have 'frank conversations' with China on tradeChinese President Xi Jinping and US President Joe Biden are far apart on trade relations. WASHINGTON: The United States will in the coming days have "frank conversations" with China on trade as the Biden administration believes the Asian giant has not honoured its commitments under an agreement signed in January 2020. President Joe Biden had asked Tai to conduct a comprehensive review of US trade strategy towards China and the tariffs initiated by his Republican predecessor Donald Trump. The Biden administration official did not specify the extent of the shortfall, while indicating that Washington is unsatisfied. However, he ended up producing limited concrete results, let alone progress on the deep-seated problems that the United States and its allies say plague their China trade relationship.
