China Press: trade deal with US off if tariffs are imposed

China's state-run Xinhua news agency carried a weekend piece that warned that current agreements between the US and China would become void if the United States implements their tariffs or other trade measures targeting China.

US Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross met with China's Vice Premier Liu He over the weekend, but no new deals or announcements from either country came out of the meetings. 

China's Xinhua piece follows a US statement saying that tariffs on China are still very much on the table, and further trade measures could be imposed if China doesn't begin to deliver concrete promises to the US at the negotiating table.
