BEIJING (Reuters) - China has invited top U.S. trade negotiators for a new round of face-to-face talks in Beijing amid continued efforts to strike at least a limited deal, the Wall Street Journal reported on Thursday citing unnamed sources.

The report said Chinese Vice Premier Liu He invited U.S. Trade Representative Robert Lighthizer and Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin for a meeting in Beijing, adding that Beijing hopes the round of talks can take place before next Thursday's Thanksgiving holiday in the United States.

U.S. officials have indicated they would be willing to meet in person but have not committed to a date, the report said.

However, the negotiators would be reluctant to travel for the talks unless China makes it clear it would make commitments on intellectual property protection, forced technology transfers and agricultural purchases, the report said.

HK is an internal issue of China.
this invitation was reportedly made last week. no bearing on latest development.
Fake news for sure. Chinese want rollback tariffs, but Trump won't want that. The whole trade war is about to slow down China's economy. If tariffs rolled back then the whole thing is waste of time.
Trump is in a deep mess and China sees that clearly. Of course China will host the talks to get most from the weak opponent.
exactly, China doesnt need vote while Trump desperately needs
US markets at all time high and impeachment show a farce, while HK spring starting to spill into mainland summer in China.  Don't see the US position of weakness.
Delay tactics we have seen time and time again. Give them a deadline and tariffs go up if there is no agreement. Talk soft but carry big stick.
keep playing games, nothing done
