European stocks traded cautiously Wednesday as investors await the U.S. Federal Reserve’s interest rate decision and monitor developments ahead of the weekend’s U.S.-China trade tariff deadline.

Meanwhile traders are also keeping a keen eye on discussions between the U.S. and China ahead of Sunday’s planned implementation of an additional 15% tariffs on around $160 billion in Chinese exports to the U.S.
