Some comments via Bloomberg citing a ministry in China - likely the commerce ministry

  • Preparing a comprehensive plan to counter US 301 investigation action
  • Says that China always seeks to resolve issues under WTO

Pretty much similar comments to the ones we saw here earlier. At this point, there is zero chance that a WTO form of settlement will resolve the underlying issues between the two countries. Trump is just about done with the WTO-style of resolving things.

It will boil down to how the two will negotiate with one another.
