Diplomatic victory for England who hosted the US-China Trade Talk | US News

Sky News understood that Trump’s government approached the British government to ask whether it would be the host of the two US-China trade talks. This is a ‘diplo-win’ that is useful for Britain.

The first half was held in Geneva last month. News about it happened as a surprise. The Chinese and Americans were in the middle of a trade war that was intimidated by Trump. President Trump On the way to Saudi Arabia and suddenly we got a conversation in Switzerland.

They went very well. US Secretary of the Treasury Scott Besent and his colleagues in China, he lived, met in person and agreed to suspend most of the tariffs for 90 days.

But two weeks later, Trump’s government accused Beijing of violating the agreement achieved in Geneva. Beijing replied to a mistake to Washington.

On Wednesday, Donald Trump and Xi Jinping talk by telephone. The Chinese claim this call at American request. Either way, the consequence is that the conversation returns to its track.

“I have just concluded a very good phone call with President XI from China, discussing some of our new ins and outs, and agreed to, trade agreements,” President Trump said this week.

From the call came the encouragement for the second round of conversation. Place is needed. In stepping in England in a short time.

Besides being geographically comfortable, the British government sources show that Britain geopolitically in the right place to act as a bridge and facilitator. British-Chinese relations are in the process of “reset”. Other locations, such as Brussels or other EU capital, will be less applied.

The most important thing is that, for Britain, this also has the potential to be profitable because it is trying to get the British-US trade agreement itself, to eliminate or massively reduce tariffs, in line.

Talks about achieving the “implementation phase” have been almost continuous since last month’s announcement, but having an American principal in London is an added value. The side talks are possible, but even the presence of the US team in the UK is very helpful.

For all the chaos caused by President Trump at his rates, he has incited a face -to -face conversation when he searched for a reset. Key players are sitting around the table – yes, to unravel the trading node tied to Trump, but the entire episode has united the enemy around the same table; It has forced relationships and maybe mutual understanding. That’s useful.

And for the next round, between the superpowers, England is the host. Also useful.
