Trump says China-US trade deal could wait until after 2020 election
Shares tumble after US president claims trade war hurting China more than US
Donald Trump has warned that a trade deal with China could be more than a year away in comments that sent shares in Britain’s top 100 companies tumbling.
Speaking at the Nato summit in London, the US president said the US was doing “very well” from the trade war and he was in no hurry to sign an agreement before he runs for re-election next November.
