US and China agree to framework deal to restore trade war truce

INTRO: The US and China say they have agreed in principle to a framework for de-escalating trade tensions between the world's two biggest economies.

The breakthrough followed an agreement in Geneva last month, in which Washington and Beijing agreed a temporary truce over trade tariffs but each country has since accused the other of breaching the deal. Laura Westbrook reports from London.
