HONG KONG (Reuters) – China expressed concern over U.S. tariffs and Russia-related sanctions during a meeting of the two countries’ Economic Working Group in Washington, China’s finance ministry said on Saturday.
China’s Vice Minister of Finance Liao Min also introduced about the basket of stimulus policies the world’s second largest economy rolled out recently during Friday’s meeting, the sixth of its kind, with U.S. Treasury Undersecretary Jay Shambaugh, the ministry said in a statement.
Liao, in the U.S. capital for the annual meetings of the International Monetary Fund and the World Bank, also held a courtesy talk with Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen after the Economic Working Group meeting.
