The Treasury secretary and trade representative plan to meet with Chinese officials this weekend to discuss trade and economic matters.
Scott Bessent, the Treasury secretary, and Jamieson Greer, the United States trade representative, will discuss trade and economic matters with the officials this week.
On Friday, the administration carved out an exception for a variety of electronics from the steep taxes now applied to Chinese imports.
The administration says foreign governments are racing to the United States to negotiate, but exactly which countries might strike a deal — and over what — remains unclear.
Jamieson Greer, the United States trade representative, will tell senators the U.S. is economy is in need of “drastic, overdue change.”
Jamieson Greer advocated restructuring the international trading system and defended the president’s aggressive actions against Canada and Mexico as he testified before the Senate.
President-elect Donald J. Trump has moved beyond the team-of-rivals approach from his first term and chosen economic aides who will defend tariffs and tax cuts.
