Trump expects ‘very good’ trade deal with China

WASHINGTON, Nov 2, 2018 (BSS/AFP) – President Donald Trump said Friday that he expects a budding US-China trade war to end with “a very good deal.”

“I think we will make a deal with China,” he told journalists at the White House. “I think a very good deal will be made with China.”

Markets have soared on reports that the two sides are closing in on a deal that would avoid Washington piling on still more tariffs against Chinese imports.

“We are getting much closer to doing something,” Trump said. “A lot of progress has been made.”
