Chinese daily claims Liu He to suspend US tour amid tariffs hike threats

China's Vice Premier Liu He is "very unlikely" to go to the United States this week following U.S. President Donald Trump's "threat" to hike tariffs on $200 billion worth of Chinese goods, editor-in-chief of China's Global Times newspaper said on Monday. "Let Trump raise tariffs. Let's see when trade talks can resume," Hu Xijin said in a tweet.

Global Times is a tabloid published by the Ruling Communist Party's People's Daily.
