Comments by China's foreign ministry spokesman, Geng Shuang

  • Upholds that using dialogue to resolve trade dispute is the right approach
  • Existing trade agreements will be void if US enacts tariffs on Chinese goods

With the constant build up of reports overnight and from the past two days, it's almost certain the US will go through with said tariffs. The deadline to finalise the list of goods it wants to enact tariffs on is tomorrow, but it looks like the implementation will also follow through quite soon - and that will stir the pot of global risk sentiment once again.
