Trump talks up China deal and EU motor sector tariffs
US President Donald Trump has said trade negotiations with China are progressing and a final agreement “will probably happen”, adding that his call for tariffs to remain on Chinese imported goods for some time did not mean talks were in trouble. Mr Trump also said he expected to keep a 25% tariff on the European car sector amid separate ongoing trade talks with the EU.
“Our deal is coming along very well. We’ll see what happens. I think the deal will probably happen. I think they need it very badly,” said Mr Trump.
