President Donald Trump said he doubts the U.S. and China can come to an agreement over trade, as the world’s largest economies resumed negotiations to avoid a damaging trade war.
“Will that be successful? I tend to doubt it,” Trump said during a press briefing on Thursday with NATO Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg. “The reason I doubt it is because China’s become very spoiled. The European Union has become very spoiled. Other countries have become very spoiled.”
