President Donald Trump on Friday accused China of violating an agreement with the U.S. to mutually roll back tariffs and trade restrictions for critical minerals. “What China is doing is they are holding back products that are essential for the industrial supply chains of India, of Europe. And that is not what a reliable partner does,” Bessent said in an interview on Sunday with CBS’ “Face the Nation.” “I am confident that when President Trump and Party Chairman Xi have a call, that this will be ironed out. But the fact that they are withholding some of the products that they agreed to release during our agreement – maybe it’s a glitch in the ******** system, maybe it’s intentional. We’ll see after the President speaks with the party chairman.” Trump said on Friday he was sure that he would speak to Xi. China said in April that the two leaders had not had a conversation recently. Asked if a talk with Xi was on Trump’s schedule, Bessent said, “I believe we’ll see something very soon.” (Reporting by Doina Chiacu; Editing by Caitlin Webber) This is the hidden content, please Sign In or Sign Up #Trump #speak #minerals #trade #dispute #Treasurys #Bessent This is the hidden content, please Sign In or Sign Up This is the hidden content, please Sign In or Sign Up 0 Quote Link to comment https://hopzone.eu/forums/topic/265709-trump-xi-likely-to-speak-soon-on-minerals-trade-dispute-treasury%E2%80%99s-bessent-says/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
