A spokesperson for the Chinese Embassy in the U.S. on Friday denied the existence of negotiations between China and the U.S. over tariffs, slamming statements by U.S. officials claiming that the two sides have held discussions.

"As far as I know, there have been no consultations or negotiations between China and the U.S. on the issue of tariffs, let alone any agreement being reached," the spokesperson said in response to a media query, noting that the tariff war was unilaterally provoked by the U.S. and that "whoever caused the knot should be the one to untie it."
