U.S.-China talks will be 'extremely tough sledding,' but reengagement is the right strategy, according to Wendy Cutler of the Asia Society Policy Institute.
Tai on Monday also said she doesn't know if she can trust Beijing until she has the chance to speak to her counterparts — a stance that foreign legal consultant at Hogan Lovells, Benjamin Kostrzewa, agreed with.
"I think that she is right to come into these talks with some suspicion," said Kostrzewa, who was the former assistant general counsel at the Office of the U.S. Trade Representative. "The discussions between the Biden administration and China … have been very difficult so far."on Tuesday that it's becoming more difficult to reach a consensus because of disagreement on both sides, and there's "no real off-ramp" for many of the tensions between the U.S.
Still, the former trade negotiator said she sees a "possible thaw in relations" between Washington and Beijing, Tai's announcement that she will reengage with her Chinese counterpart also signals a willingness to see if there is a way to deescalate tensions, she added.
