TURNBERRY, Scotland (Reuters) -U.S. President Donald Trump said on Sunday his administration was close to reaching a trade deal with China, but gave no other details.

“We’re very close to a deal with China. We really sort of made a deal with China, but we’ll see how that goes,” Trump told reporters at the start of a meeting with European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen in Scotland.
