WASHINGTON -- Top trade negotiators from the U.S. and China will meet in Washington on Oct. 10 in a bid to break the deadlock in their talks, White House trade adviser Peter Navarro said on Tuesday.

China's Vice Premier Liu He will lead the delegation to the U.S., Navarro said in an interview with Fox Business Network. U.S. Trade Representative Robert Lighthizer and Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin are expected to participate in the two-day session.
