If China is angry at the United States for imposing an extra 10% tariff on all Chinese goods, it is doing a good job of hiding it.Both Canada and Mexico have vowed to retaliate and already Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has said his country "will not back down" as he announced a 25% levy on more than $100bn (£81bn) of American goods.

President Trump plans to hold talks with China within 24 hours, potentially delaying a 10% tariff on Chinese goods. The discussions may cover illegal Chinese fentanyl and the TikTok app. Trump's prior agreements with Canada and Mexico included delaying tariffs in exchange for stricter border measures.

U.S. President Donald Trump will speak with Chinese President Xi Jinping as soon as this week, Trump's spokesperson said, setting up a major diplomatic exchange as the world's two largest economies seek a deal that could avert a broader trade war.
