China and the United States had “constructive” discussions on trade in Washington, state news agency Xinhua said on Saturday, CNBC reports.
The two countries agreed to keep communicating on related issues, and discussed the details of the next round of trade talks in October, Xinhua said, without providing other details.
Chinese officials were expected to visit U.S. farmers next week as a goodwill gesture, but canceled to return to China sooner than originally scheduled, agriculture organizations from Montana and Nebraska said.
The United States had removed tariffs overnight from over 400 Chinese products in response to requests from U.S. companies.
The Chinese Embassy and the U.S. Department of Agriculture did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
