Another Trump tariff threat aimed at China

President Trump is once again threatening higher tariffs on Chinese goods if that country does not make a deal on trade.

He made the comments during a cabinet meeting on Tuesday.

“China is going to have to make a deal that I like, ” Trump said. “If we don’t make a deal with China, I’ll just raise the tariffs even higher.”

Various media reports indicate the two sides remain divided over core issues—including Beijing’s demand for removing tariffs and the U.S.’s insistence on China buying farm products.
