		</div><p>China&#8217;s government said it has made plans with Washington for talks in January aimed at ending a tariff battle with the US that threatens to depress global trade.</p>
<p>The two sides have &#8220;made specific arrangements for face-to-face meetings&#8221; and are talking by phone, said a Ministry of Commerce spokesman, Gao Feng.</p>
<p>Presidents Donald Trump and Xi Jinping agreed on December 1 to postpone more tariff hikes for 90 days while their governments negotiate over US complaints that Beijing steals or pressures foreign companies to hand over technology.</p>
<p>Mr Trump agreed to postpone tariff hikes on 200 billion dollars&#8217; worth of Chinese imports planned for January 1.</p>
<p>Beijing responded by announcing a delay in a 25% duty on imported US vehicles.</p>
<p>Preparations for talks have proceeded despite the December 1 arrest in Canada of an executive of Chinese tech giant Huawei on US charges related to possible violations of trade sanctions on Iran.</p>
<p>Companies and investors worry the dispute might depress global trade at a time of rising anxiety about signs economic growth might be slowing.</p>
<p>Mr Gao said the two sides are maintaining &#8220;close communication&#8221;.</p>
