Top U.S. and Chinese officials met in Madrid to extend a fragile trade truce that is going to expire in November.

A potential Trump–Xi meeting at next month’s APEC summit could shape the outcome, but for now, the world’s two largest economies remain locked in a delicate balance between cooperation and confrontation.
