Trump Tweets Could Scuttle US-China Deal
- RT America Published on May 6, 2019
President Trump took to Twitter on Sunday to attribute the improved US economy to tariffs against China and to threaten still more tariffs, causing markets to plunge. This came as a surprise to those expecting the US-China trade negotiations to wrap up in a matter of weeks. RT America’s Sara Montes de Oca reports for News.Views.Hughes. Then former USTR official Steve Gill joins to weigh in on President Trump’s “good cop, bad cop” strategy, which he hopes will “force a deal to finally come to conclusion.” They also discuss prospects for a new US-Russia nuclear arms deal and whether China can expect to be involved.
