Trump wants to move ahead with tariffs on Chinese imports worth $200 billion next week -Bloomberg

Reuters  |  WASHINGTON 

(Reuters) - U.S. has told aides he wants to move ahead on a plan to impose tariffs on Chinese imports worth $200 billion next week, reported, further ratcheting up trade tensions between the world's two largest economies.

Both countries have levied tariffs on $50 billion on the other's goods and threatened more duties. U.S. and Chinese officials ended talks last week without major breakthroughs on alleviating trade issues.
