President Trump told a reporter on Wednesday the United States is currently in trade negotiations with "around 15 countries" including Japan and South Korea just days after he said he had reached a new trade agreement with China.

President Donald Trump and officials from China announced that they have agreed on a framework for a trade deal between the two major economic powers.

Talks aimed at cooling tensions between the US and China have ended in a "deal", according to US President Donald Trump. He said China had agreed to supply US companies with magnets and rare earth metals, while the US would walk back its threats to revoke visas of Chinese students.
