U.S.-China trade talks end without extension of tariff truce, as Trump weighs options

A potential extension of a tariff pause between the United States and China will not be agreed to until President Donald Trump signs off on the plan, U.S. negotiators said Tuesday.

Trump "has final say on all the trade deals" and the pending tariff truce, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent told CNBC's Eamon Javers.

The remarks came after top trade officials for the two countries concluded talks in Stockholm, Sweden, their third round of high-level discussions since May.
