Official China media (state run media) Xinhua confirming the news from earlier.
- US Trade Representative Lighthizer Spoke with China's Liu He on Monday
- Chinese Commerce Ministry says China, US trade teams to have agreed keep communication
The gist:
- trade negotiators for China and the United States have agreed to resume discussions to resolve their trade dispute
- a phone conversation on Monday ahead of the high-stakes talks between the two countries' presidents in Japan this week

Its not great to rely on Xinhua for confirmation, although I do hold that it is good practice not to believe anything from the White House until its officially denied. :-D
Always nice to get a Three Amigos sequel.
