Trump Says U.S.-China Seek New Site to Sign Trade Agreement

(Bloomberg) -- President Donald Trump said the U.S. and China are working on finding a new site for the two countries to sign a trade deal after Chile canceled a summit where they were set to finalize an agreement.

“The new location will be announced soon,” Trump said in a tweet on Thursday.

Trump said the pact would cover “60% of total deal” after Chinese officials cast doubts about reaching a comprehensive long-term agreement.
