Trump Threatens To Up China Tariffs If It Doesn't Budge In Trade Talks

The US and China have been negotiating a trade deal for nearly two years. A phase one agreement was announced, where China would buy more American farm goods and tighten intellectual property rules, while the US would remove some tariffs. However, disagreements over tariff removals have caused a stalemate. Recent discussions have been constructive, but no comments have been made on the delay in finalizing the deal.
