US President Donald Trump says it might be better to wait until after the November 2020 general election in the United States to reach a trade agreement with China.

“In some ways, I like the idea of waiting until after the election for the China deal, but they want to make a deal now and we will see whether or not the deal is going to be right,” Trump told reporters in London on Tuesday. “I have no deadline, no. In some ways, I think it’s better to wait until after the election with China,” the US president added.

So we’ll see what happens.”
