Manila Bulletin

U.S. President Donald Trump says “we’ll see what happens” with China as tariff truce deadline looms.  Asked whether he plans to extend his 90-day pause on reciprocal tariffs on China, he said “we’ll see what happens” to reporters during a press conference, Monday.  The U.S.-China trade truce ends on August 12th – if it is not extended, rates on Chinese goods could climb back to over 80 percent.
