No, man, this is not bad. The article says,This is bad, if China just waited another month or so they will be in a much better negotiating position.
"China says it is “currently assessing” proposals by the United States to begin trade talks, in a subtle tone shift that could open the door for negotiations.
A spokesperson for China’s Commerce Ministry said in a Friday statement that “the US has recently sent multiple messages to China through relevant parties, hoping to start talks with China. China is currently evaluating this.”
This is a pretty high and mighty retort saying that America really wants to negotiate with us. We have received that request and we will think about whether or not we will give them that chance. It's kinda bitchy-cute actually.
