regarding the u.s. throat cutting tariffs on chinese goods i think similar situations have occurred repeatedly in the past china's position attitude remain clear and i think the us acknowledges this china us trade talks have been held for ten rounds and have made good progress i think the priority now is for both sides to work together on finding a halfway point we seek a consensus based on mutual respect benefits both countries which would appease not only china and the u.s. but the international community as well and there's a lot of pressure now as the talk is that the clock is ticking and mr trump gave them until friday so a deal could be made as early as this week and that's something that people are hoping for although alison experts are less optimistic than they were last week when we thought they were pretty close to signing that deal and so what could success possible success or failure look like for the u.s. and china here you know we're talking about the world's two largest economies they've b

we know that the u.s. and china will have another two rounds of talks, what other remaining lingering issues, the second one is it has been reported in the u.s. news media that the confidence among business communities regarding this deal is kind of low. they kind of worried that the deal will fall apart. because if the deal is not mooted, want to hear your thoughts on this. what are the prospects. >>> i think in terms of the last part of the question is the community. i think the business would rather see a deal did not deal. a deal would be good with general relief because it would at least have a path but the reduction of tariffs and releasing of tensions. i think from that perspective, i think this is a broad category anyway but i think in general, having said that they are worried that this may be a missed opportunity. if china does not end up agreeing to meaningful concessions it'll make it easier for american companies to do business in china. and then i think that will be some disappointment there.
