Trump on tariffs on China: Meeting with Putin went well, I don't have to think about it now
The US president suggested that he would have to consider new restrictions in two to three weeks.
President of the United States Donald Trump said that now he is not thinking about imposing additional tariffs on Russia's partner China, as he is satisfied with the meeting with the dictator Vladimir Putin in Alaska. The head of the United States told about this in an interview with Fox News channel.
"Well, given what happened today, I don't think I need to think about it. No, maybe I'll have to think about it in two or three weeks or something. But right now, we don't need to think about it," the US leader said.
According to Trump, the meeting "went very well."
Earlier, on August 13, the US president promised Moscow "very serious consequences", if the Russian dictator does not agree to a truce during the Alaska summit.
- Trump and Putin's talks ended without a ceasefire agreement. About the summit read in the chronicle by LIGA.net.
- In the same interview, the US president said that during the Alaska summit, he and the Russian dictator disagreed only on a few "pretty significant" points, and that now it's up to Ukraine's leader Zelenskyy.
- It is the only country against which Trump has raised duties due to the purchase of Russian oil – India.
