AIR FORCE ONE (Reuters) - U.S. President Donald Trump said on Friday
that he has tariffs ready to go on a further $267 billion worth of
Chinese imports, as the world awaits his decision on imposing levies on
$200 billion worth of the Asian nation’s goods.
“The $200
billion we are talking about could take place very soon depending on
what happens with them. To a certain extent its going to be up to China,
Trump said. “And I hate to say this, but behind that is another $267
billion ready to go on short notice if I want. That changes the
equation.”
Earlier on Friday White House economic adviser Larry
Kudlow said Trump will not make any decisions on his threatened tariffs
on another $200 billion worth of Chinese goods before officials evaluate
public comments on them. The U.S. Trade Representative’s office
received nearly 6,000 comments during the public comment period on the
proposed levies, which ended Thursday night.
