Nah, that's him saying we're dealing with lunatics and schizophrenics and that's why there's no progress. In other words, China has no fault in this. This isn't a trade war; nothing's going to be over. It's a permanent re-balancing away from an America that wants to weaponize the economy. American media constantly talks about a "win" because that's the feeling they're most deprived of when dealing with China and also because they think it's a competition/game to get the other side to capitulate, and then it'll be over. It is not; China doesn't want it to be business as usual and will never intertwine its economy with America's again because there is no more trust. But that's really ok; these 2 countries are destined to be rivals can't be more than frenemies anyway.So it sounds as if we are much closer to a resolution than some would have you believe? I would comment that it sounds as if the Chinese ambassador really does have some insight into our concerns, and I would agree that the US and China continue to have shared interests in a peaceful resolution....
