Trump defends China trade policy
WASHINGTON -- US President Donald Trump defended Saturday his hardline trade policy against China, arguing that the tariffs he imposed are bringing in "billions" from the Beijing government.
Trump also said that other countries, fearful of being punished with US levies like China is, are clamoring to reach trade deals with the United States. Trump's announcement came a day after US and Chinese trade negotiators revived talks aimed at ending the year-long dispute.
