“Scott will go to Switzerland, a meeting with China,” Trump told reporters on Thursday at the White House. “And you know, they really want to make an agreement. We can all play games. Who is the first invitation, who did not send them? That doesn’t matter. It’s only important to happen in that room. But I will tell you that China wants to make an agreement. We’ll see how it works.”
Earlier this week, Trump said Beijing wanted to get to the negotiating table on the tariffs. (Adek Berry)
