On October 11, 2019, China and the United States announced a preliminary trade deal subject to finalization—one that came after more than a year of escalating tariffs.

United States Continues to Block New Appellate Body Members for the World Trade Organization, Risking the Collapse of the Appellate Process
With only three remaining members of what is supposed to be a seven-member body, the World Trade Organization's (WTO) Appellate Body may soon cease to function.
