Just days before Chinese negotiators are scheduled to arrive in Washington, the president threatened to increase existing tariffs on $200 billion worth of Chinese goods to 25 percent from 10 percent and levy a new 25 percent fee on all remaining Chinese imports. In a pair of tweets, Trump accused China of trying to “renegotiate” terms of an agreement that negotiators have been racing to finish for the past five months. Chinese Vice Premier Liu He is scheduled to arrive in Washington on May 8 for what had been billed as potentially the concluding rounds of bargaining. U.S. officials have said they hoped to wrap up a sweeping deal soon, but Trump’s abrupt intervention adds a volatile new element to the end game. “The Trade Deal with China continues, but too slowly, as they attempt to renegotiate. No!” the president tweeted shortly after noon on Sunday. The office of the U.S. Trade Representative, Robert E. Lighthizer, had no immediate response to a request for comment.
