Trump claims serious talks to begin with China over trade negotiations
Trump expressed his optimism about China hours after he sent mixed messages on the tariff war
Donald Trump, facing pressure to scale back a US-China trade war contributing to a global economic slowdown, claimed Monday that serious talks will begin soon.
Trump said his trade negotiators had received two “very good calls” from China on Sunday. But a spokesman for China’s foreign ministry said on Monday that he didn’t know what calls Trump was talking about.
