Trumps "Gesture of Good Will"

During President Trumps term he has imposed many new tariffs on goods coming into the United States from China. The reason for this was that he wanted to, in his terms "Make America Great Again" and by imposing tariffs from China it makes companies want to stay in the U.S. Recently there has been a turn of events where President Trump has refrained, for a few weeks, from imposing another tariff on China as a sign of "Good Will." This has caused the tensions in the so called "trade war" to diminish momentarily, and hopefully it will lead to a deal being made between the United States and China.

There are negotiators on both sides of the "Trade War" that are trying to stop the back and forth of imposing tariffs on both countries, but they have been unsuccessful. In the spring these negotiators came close to creating a treaty between the United States and China, but Chinese officials withdrew from it because some of the demands the President Trump had offered. Because of this it has cause this prolonged "trade war" to exceed everyones expectations.
