U.S. President Donald Trump has announced that the United States is making progress in trade talks with China, as tariffs on over 400 Chinese products have been lifted. The products exempted from tariffs range from printed circuit boards to dog collars and Christmas lights. The talks are expected to focus on agriculture and will determine whether the two countries are working toward a solution or headed for new and higher tariffs on each other's goods. While the exemptions are seen as a goodwill signal by China, the trade talks remain on a delicate footing. Both countries remain far apart on key issues, and experts say the trade war has become a political and ideological battle that could take years to resolve.
