The latest comments show that Mr. Trump is not in a hurry to return to the negotiating table with Beijing.
President Donald Trump said he was "very happy" with the current commercial war and that under his supervision, China would not become the world's No. 1 superpower.
"We are earning billions of dollars," Trump told Fox News reporter Steve Hilton when asked when the commercial war ended. "It is clear that China cannot do as well as we do."
These comments are a sign that Mr. Trump is not in a hurry to return to the negotiating table with Beijing. Since the latest round of talks broke down in early May, the US president has levied an additional $ 200 billion in Chinese goods and banned Huawei in the US market.
According to him, the Chinese economy is in a bad state. "Our economy is great. They have chased us closely. If Hillary Clinton becomes President, then perhaps by the end of her term the Chinese economy has far surpassed the US economy. But now they were even far removed by us, ”he said.
He also told Hilton reporters that China wants to replace the United States as the world leading power, but because of him, that will not happen. "They [China] are very ambitious people".
