President Donald Trump announced that the United States will delay the imposition of
additional trade tariffs on Chinese products.
It was planned that on March 1, import duties on Chinese products would increase from
10% to 25%.
Trump said both countries had achieved "substantial progress" in trade negotiations,
which caused Chinese stocks to rise by almost 5%.
The US president added that he was planning a summit with his Chinese counterpart, Xi
Jinping, in the state of Florida, to consolidate the trade agreement if new advances were
made.
A report by the official Chinese news agency, Xinhua, also noted that there was
"substantial progress" on specific issues such as technology transfer, intellectual property
protection and agriculture.
Trump's decision to delay the US $ 200 billion increase in tariffs on Chinese products is
seen as a sign that the two sides are making progress on a solution to their damaging
trade war.
Last week, Trump had highlighted the progress in the last round of negotiations in
Washington, including an agreement on the manipulation of the currency, although details
were not released.
According to sources quoted by CNBC on Friday, China had committed to buy up to US
$ 1.2 trillion in US products, but there had been no progress on intellectual property
issues.
These included accusations that China was stealing the intellectual property of US
companies, forcing them to transfer technology to their country.
USA it imposed tariffs on US $ 250,000 million in Chinese products, and China retaliated
by imposing tariffs on US $ 110,000 million in US products.
Trump also threatened to impose extra tariffs on Chinese products for an additional
amount of US $ 267,000 million, which would affect practically all Chinese imports to the
US.
The trade dispute has made financial markets nervous, creates a risk that costs will rise
for US companies and is adding pressure to a Chinese economy that is already showing
signs of tension.
It has also stoked fears about the impact on the global economy.
Last year, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) warned that the trade war between the
United States. and China ran the risk of making the world a "poorer and more dangerous
place".
GUERRA COMERCIAL EE.UU. VS CHINA: DONALD TRUMP APLAZA UN NUEVO
AUMENTO DE ARANCELES A PRODUCTOS CHINOS
LA GUERRA COMERCIAL
Trump inició la guerra comercial como queja por prácticas comerciales de China que
consideraba injustas.
Estas incluían acusaciones de que China robaba la propiedad intelectual de las
empresas estadounidenses, obligándolas a transferir tecnología a su país.
EE.UU. impuso aranceles sobre US$250.000 millones en productos chinos, y China
tomó represalias imponiendo aranceles sobre US$110.000 millones en productos
estadounidenses.
Trump también amenazó con imponer aranceles extras sobre productos chinos por un
valor adicional de US$267.000 millones, lo que afectaría a prácticamente todas las
importaciones chinas a EE.UU.
La disputa comercial ha puesto nerviosos a los mercados financieros, genera un riesgo
de que aumenten los costos para las compañías estadounidenses y está agregando
presión a una economía china que ya está mostrando señales de tensión.
También ha avivado los temores sobre el impacto en la economía global.
El año pasado, el Fondo Monetario Internacional (FMI) advirtió que la guerra comercial
entre EE.UU. y China corría el riesgo de hacer del mundo un "lugar más pobre y más
peligroso".
