US President Donald Trump said he will give a press conference on Friday (May 29) on China amid spiraling US-Chinese tensions over Hong Kong and the coronavirus fallout, CNA reports.
"We'll be announcing tomorrow what we're doing with respect to China," he told reporters at an Oval Office meeting on Thursday, saying "we're not happy with China," but giving no specific details about his plans.
Wall Street closed lower shortly after Trump's remarks, ending a three-day streak.
The press conference will come on the same day that Britain and the United States want the UN Security Council to meet informally behind closed doors to discuss the situation in Hong Kong, according to diplomatic sources.
