China on Thursday denied U.S. President Donald Trump's assertion that
the two sides were involved in active negotiations over tariffs, and
said the U.S. should revoke its unilateral tariffs against the nation.
..
"China's position is consistent and we are open to consultations and
dialogues, but any form of consultations and negotiations must be
conducted on the basis of mutual respect and in an equal manner," said
Ministry of Commerce spokesman He Yadong. "Any claims about the progress
of China-U.S. trade negotiations are groundless as trying to catch the
wind and have no factual basis."

Else where, MSN Headline:
" Bessent says full China trade deal may take two to three years"
But before the negotiation of full US-China trade deal, there would be negotiation on the the conditions under which US-China trade deal could
begin such as what would be included and excluded from the negotiation.
And what action from either side would break the agreement to negotiate.
Such agreement for negotiation could easily add months to the proccess.
