Trump pushes Xi on trade after US court deal hurts China tariff pressure tool
President Trump pushed Chinese President Xi Jinping on trade during their meetings, as a recent Supreme Court ruling weakened one of Trump's key tools to pressure China.
President Donald Trump has shifted his focus to trade negotiations with China during high-stakes meetings with President Xi Jinping this week, following a Supreme Court ruling that limited one of his key tools for pressuring Beijing over tariffs and trade practices. The court's decision on Monday dealt a significant blow to Trump's ability to impose tariffs as a tool of economic coercion against China. As a result, trade has become the central focus of Trump's meetings with Xi, who is also reportedly pushing back against U.S. pressure. The renewed emphasis on trade highlights the complexities and tensions surrounding U.S.-China relations.
