China wants to see a number of steps from President Donald Trump’s
administration before it will agree to trade talks, including showing more
respect by reining in disparaging remarks by members of his cabinet,
according to a person familiar with the Chinese government’s thinking.
Other conditions include a more consistent US position and a willingness to
address China’s concerns around American sanctions and Taiwan, said the
person, who asked not to be identified to discuss internal thinking.
Beijing also wants the US to appoint a point person for talks who has the
president’s support and can help prepare a deal that Trump and Chinese
leader Xi Jinping can sign when they meet, the person said.
The fate of the global economy and financial markets hinges in large part on
whether the US and China can find a way to avoid a protracted trade war.
Trump has hit China with tariffs of 145% on most goods since taking office,
prompting Beijing to retaliate and threatening to wipe out most trade between
the world’s biggest economies.
The offshore yuan gained 0.2% against the dollar in the wake of the report.
The Australian dollar, a China-proxy currency, also advanced 0.5%. S&P 500
Index futures pared losses to 0.4% from as much as 1.6% earlier in the
session.
The rapid onslaught of US tariffs has engendered broad public support in
China for retaliation, giving Xi a political incentive to rebuff Trump’s
repeated demands for a phone call. The US leader on Tuesday again called on
China to reach out to him in order to kick off negotiations to resolve the
trade fight.
According to the person familiar with Beijing’s thinking, the most important
precondition for any talks is that Chinese officials need to know such
engagement will be conducted with respect.
While the president has been relatively dovish when speaking publicly about
Xi, other members of his administration have been more hawkish, leaving
officials in Beijing unsure of the US’s position, the person said.
Whatever the situation in Trump’s first term, officials in Beijing believe
he now has tremendous control over this administration, said the person. As a
result, when US officials make pointed statements about China, and Trump doesn
’t disavow those views, Chinese officials have assumed the president
condones their positions, the person said.
Vance Comments
While the person didn’t identify any specific comments by administration
officials, Beijing has recently expressed notable displeasure with comments
Vice President JD Vance made about “Chinese peasants.” Chinese Foreign
Ministry spokesman Lin Jian last week called the remarks “ignorant and
disrespectful,” in what was a rare direct rebuke of a senior US leader.
In addition to wanting a consistent message from the US administration,
officials in Beijing also want to know that Washington is ready to address
some of China’s concerns, the person said. Chief among those is the
prevailing perception among Chinese officials that the US has enacted
policies designed to contain and suppress China’s modernization.
The US in recent years has tightened export controls around China in an
effort to prevent Beijing from obtaining cutting-edge chips and other
advanced technology. Trump’s administration on Monday barred Nvidia Corp.
from selling its H20 chip in China, escalating the tech fight with Beijing.
Point Person
China also wants the US to address its national security concerns,
particularly over Taiwan, the person said. Beijing claims the self-governing
island as part of its territory and has pledged to take steps, including
military action if necessary, to protect those claims. China will not
undertake any provocative actions on Taiwan, the person said, but it will
respond if provoked.
Finally, Beijing also wants the US to designate a point person to oversee
talks, the person said. China has no preference for who that is but they want
the person to clearly be speaking and acting with Trump’s authority.
Chinese officials also understand that Trump may want to personally lead the
negotiations, the person said. While Beijing would be flattered by Trump
wanting to invest his time to such discussions, the person said, China
believes the best way forward is for officials designated by the two
presidents to oversee the talks.
That would be the most-effective way to ensure that negotiations culminated
in a meaningful summit between Trump and Xi, the person said.
