Trump says no final deal on tariffs will be made until he meets with China's President Xi Trump says no final deal on tariffs will be made until he meets with China's President Xi
(35 minutes later)
US President Donald Trump tweeted Thursday that trade talks with Chinese representatives in Washington were going well but wrote no final deal will be signed until he meets with Chinese President Xi Jinping.
“China does not want an increase in tariffs and feels they will do much better if they make a deal,” tweeted Trump, adding that “they are correct.”
The US leader continued, however, that “No final deal will be made until my friend President Xi, and I, meet in the near future to discuss and agree on some of the long standing and more difficult points.”
Trump added that he and the Chinese representatives were trying to do a complete deal, “leaving NOTHING unresolved on the table.”
He said that all of the many problems were being discussed and will be hopefully resolved. “Tariffs on China increase to 25% on March 1st, so all working hard to complete by that date!”
On Wednesday, a Chinese delegation led by the country’s Vice Premier Liu He, arrived at the Eisenhower Executive Office Building next to the White House, where cabinet ministers will spend two days trying to settle a trade war that is in its seventh month.
The sides are expected to discuss protection of US intellectual property, the forced transfer of US technology through joint ventures, and enforcement mechanisms to verify that China follows through on any promised changes.
