China Open to Trade Talks with US at WTO, but with Conditions

China and the US are arguing about trade at the WTO.

China is willing to talk about tariffs and subsidies, but not give up its special status as a developing country.

The US wants China to give up that status to level the playing field.

Both sides are discussing changes to how trade works, but big disagreements remain.

China might give up some benefits, and it's open to discussing tariffs under WTO rules.

The main issue is whether China will compromise on its status.
