China maintains that ‘door is open’ for talks on tariffs if US shows sincerity

China is open to negotiating with the US on tariffs, signaling a potential de-escalation in the trade war. The Chinese commerce ministry emphasized that while they are ready to fight, they are also open to talks if the US shows sincerity and removes unilateral tariffs. China has quietly expanded exemptions on US goods, including ethane, semiconductors, and pharmaceuticals, to ease tensions without public concessions. Meanwhile, President Trump defends the 145% tariffs on Chinese imports, though some in his administration are exploring phased tariff reductions and renewed trade talks.
