Trump says US will be fighting China ‘in a very friendly fashion’

PITTSBURGH, Pennsylvania (Reuters) -U.S. President Donald Trump on Tuesday lauded a new trade deal signed with Indonesia and said the United States would be fighting China “in a very friendly fashion.”

Trump told an energy summit at Carnegie Mellon University that other trade deals could be reached, including potentially with India.

Trump has launched a global trade war, levying tariffs of at least 10% on many countries and higher rates on many others.
