Geneva, negotiations in a secret location between China and the US: Bessent and Lifeng discuss duties

The talks between the United States and China on tariffs are taking place in a secret location on the left bank of Lake Geneva , near the Parc des Eaux-Vives, the highest-level meetings between representatives of the two countries since the beginning of the trade war unleashed by Donald Trump. In an attempt to ease the tensions that are beginning to weigh on the world's two largest economies, prominent figures such as US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent , US Trade Representative Jamieson Greer and Chinese Vice Premier He Lifeng have arrived at the Hotel Intercontinental , where American delegations usually stay in Geneva.
