Cui expressed that China wants to resolve trade dispute through negotiations and China has provided US a proposal to settle the trade deficit between two countries, but it need the good will of both sides.

He said, “We want to solve it through negotiation and consultation between the two sides. But in order for the negotiation, the consultation to succeed, we do need goodwill and good faith from both sides”.

Moreover, Cui said, “We offered to reduce the trade deficit of the US States, for instance. And we also presented a very good proposal to the US side about the further reform and opening up in China, some of the so-called structural issues. We are ready to work on the issues”.

Cui also told that US’ changing behaviour if confusing and we do not know what US exactly wants as priorities.

He further conveyed that, “I think more than once we had some tentative agreement between the two working teams. Then just overnight the tentative agreement was rejected and the demand from US changed. So this is very confusing, and this is making things very difficult”.
