Trade delegations from the US and China reportedly plan to meet in Shanghai next Monday, which would mark the first high-level talks between the two sides since they stalled in May.

Bloomberg reported on Tuesday that US Trade Representative Robert Lighthizer and other senior negotiators are set to be in China through Wednesday for the talks.

US President Donald Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping agreed to a cease-fire at the G20 summit in late June, stalling proposed tariff escalations while negotiators work toward an agreement to defuse the yearlong trade dispute.

Trade delegations from the US and China reportedly plan to meet in Shanghai next Monday, which would mark the first high-level talks between the two sides since they stalled in May.

Bloomberg reported on Tuesday that US Trade Representative Robert Lighthizer and other senior negotiators are set to be in China through next Wednesday for the talks.

The White House and the Office of the USTR did not immediately respond to emails requesting comment. Asked about similar reports from Chinese state media outlets on Monday, the USTR said that it "has no announcements on this at this time."

US President Donald Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping agreed to a cease-fire at the G20 summit in late June, stalling proposed tariff escalations while negotiators work toward an agreement to defuse the yearlong trade dispute.

Nearly a dozen rounds of high-level negotiations fell apart in May after Washington said Beijing reneged on key commitments in a draft deal, prompting threats from Trump to slap tariffs on virtually all imports from China. The president has since jumped between expressing optimism about a deal and renewing those threats.

Lighthizer and Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin spoke with their Chinese counterparts by phone this month to discuss unresolved issues. The US has struggled to get China to change domestic laws to address intellectual-property theft and the forced transfer of foreign technology.

In Beijing, Xi has walked a tightrope between maintaining a tough appearance and giving into concessions that could help the slowing Chinese economy. Officials have taken steps toward buying more American soybeans after halting a majority of such purchases last year.

The Trump administration hosted technology companies on Monday, a gesture that could signal plans to loosen restrictions on the telecommunications giant Huawei. The White House described the meeting as "constructive."
