![U.S., China Inch Closer To Trade Deal U.S., China Inch Closer To Trade Deal](https://magarticles.magzter.com/articles/16878/377599/5da2813c284ac/Donald-Trump.jpg)
U.S. President Donald Trump on Friday outlined the first phase of a deal to end a trade war with China and suspended a threatened tariffhike, but officials on both sides said much more work needed to be done before an accord could be agreed.
The emerging deal, covering agriculture, currency and some aspects of intellectual property protections, would represent the biggest step by the two countries in 15 months to end a tarifftitfor-tat that has whipsawed financial markets and slowed global growth.
But Friday’s announcement did not include many details and Mr. Trump said it could take up to five weeks to get a pact written.
He acknowledged the agreement could fall apart during that period, though he expressed confidence that it would not.
