BEIJING - China's exports declined for the fourth consecutive month in November as a trade war with Washington rumbles on, official data showed Sunday, although imports rebounded.
China's trade surplus with the United States, a key point of anger in the White House, fell to $24.61 billion from $26.42 billion the month before. Negotiations appeared to take a hit after the US passed legislation in support of Hong Kong pro-democracy protests and a bill seeking sanctions against senior Chinese officials over the crackdown on mainly Muslim Uighurs in Xinjiang.Speaking to reporters this week President Donald Trump dodged questions on whether a new round of tariffs on about $160 billion in Chinese goods -- likely to include sportswear and mobile phones -- would take effect as scheduled on December 15.
