US: The ball is in China's court - we don't need a deal

President Donald Trump is open to a trade agreement with China, but it is up to Beijing to take the first step. This is what White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt says, according to Reuters and Bloomberg.

During a press conference, she read out a statement that she says Donald Trump has dictated:

- The ball is in China's court. China needs to make a deal with us, we don't need to make a deal with them.

In the statement, Trump also claims that "China wants what we have, what all countries want," namely the American consumer. "Or put another way, they need our money," the statement continues, according to Bloomberg.
