Top US and Chinese officials arrive for second day of trade talks in Stockholm

Chinese and US officials wrapped the first day in a fresh round of talks in Stockholm on Monday, with the world's top two economies looking to extend a fragile trade truce in the face of President Donald Trump's global tariff war.

The talks came a day after Trump reached a deal with the EU that will see the bloc's exports to the United States taxed at 15 percent. The United States and China earlier this year-imposed triple-digit tariffs on each other in a tit-for-tat escalation, but then walked back under a temporary agreement reached in May.
