Trump said our talks with China, a lot of interesting things are happening and we will see what happens.
Meanwhile, China’s Commerce Ministry said today(Thursday), that Beijing would have to adopt necessary countermeasures if Washington unilaterally escalates trade tensions.
It said that U.S. pressure have also caused serious setbacks to the trade talks.
