Speaks after meeting with Macron
He adds:
- After talks with Macron, he believes that have solutions to a number of issues
- Trade with France is complicated because of the EU, which has trade barriers that are unacceptable
- He would prefer to deal directly with France on trade
- US is a very good chance of deal with China
- Treasury Secretary Mnuchin going to China in a few days to negotiate on trade
- NAFTA talks going nicely
- Says will have a meeting with North Korean leader very soon
- North Korea wants it as soon as possible
- North Korea leader has been very open and very honorable
- Trump says had substantial talks on Iran with Macron, they're looking forward to doing something that has to be done strongly
- He and Macron could have an agreement soon on Iran.
Seems like Trump is putting a wedge in the EU with some of the comments on trade with France directly. The EURUSD is trading at 1.2217. The 100 day MA is at 1.22049. The price continues to trade around that MA level.
There will be a press conference at the White House soon.
