WASHINGTON, April 8 (Reuters) - U.S. President Donald Trump believes that China has to make a deal with the United States concerning additional tariffs that are set to go into effect on Wednesday, White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt told a news briefing.
"The Chinese want to make a deal. They just don't know how to do it," Leavitt said on Tuesday. "He believes China has to make a deal with the United States." If China reaches out, she added, Trump would be "incredibly gracious, but he's going to do what's best for the American people."
