China has expressed its confidence in managing trade tensions with the United States, as confirmed by Vice Foreign Minister Hua Chunying. The statement came ahead of a meeting between U.S. and Chinese officials in Switzerland to address the mutual tariffs that have affected global trade dynamics.

The upcoming talks are considered crucial in seeking a resolution to the ongoing trade war, which has created significant disruptions in the global economy. Despite President Trump's hints at reducing the 145% tariff on Beijing, the uncertainty has continued to ripple through international markets.

Hua reiterated the Chinese position, emphasizing the country's readiness to face existing challenges while highlighting that the U.S. tariffs are contributing to a global economic slowdown, impacting American consumers and businesses alike. She anticipates a return to normalcy in the U.S. trade administration.
