Chinese importers have set deals to buy American soybeans and pork, the Ministry of Commerce said Thursday, as the two governments make conciliatory gestures ahead of trade talks.
According to ABC News, the announcement follows Beijing's decision to lift punitive tariffs on soybeans, China's biggest import from the United States.
Chinese buyers have "completed deals to buy soybeans and pork of considerable scale," said a ministry spokesman, Gao Feng. He gave no details.
