US President Donald Trump today exuded confidence about the future of the US and China, saying China will ease trade barriers "because it is the right thing to do".
The US, the world's largest economy, has a trade deficit of almost USD 500 billion with China, the world's second largest economy.
The tensions are raising the spectre of a tit-for-tat trade war between the world's two largest economies.
"China will take down its Trade Barriers because it is the right thing to do. Taxes will become Reciprocal & a deal will be made on Intellectual Property. Great future for both countries," said the US President.
