Trump, the United States trade delegation, led by Secretary of the Treasury Steven Mnuchin and including Secretary of Commerce Wilbur Ross, U.S. Trade Representative Robert Lighthizer, Assistant to the President for Economic Policy Larry Kudlow, and Assistant to the President for Trade and Manufacturing Policy Peter Navarro, traveled to Beijing, and was joined there by Ambassador Terry Branstad.

There is consensus within the Administration that immediate attention is needed to bring changes to United States-China trade and investment relationship.

    The delegation now returns to Washington, D.C., to brief the President and seek his decision on next steps.
