Suspense crime, Digital Desk : High-level discussions between the United States and China on critical economic issues have been extended into a second day in London, signaling intensive negotiations between the two global superpowers. The talks are part of an ongoing effort to maintain open lines of communication and responsibly manage a competitive relationship.
The American delegation is headed by Daleep Singh, the Deputy National Security Adviser for International Economics, while the Chinese team is led by a vice minister.
