Former United Nations Ambassador Nikki Haley questioned President Trump’s trade moves with China and India on Tuesday, warning the U.S. shouldn’t “burn” its relationship with India. “India should not be buying oil from Russia.

P resident Donald Trump said the U.S. was “getting very close” to a deal with China, while also threatening to impose higher tariffs on the European Union as he gave several trade updates early Tuesday. Trump said the U.S. was “getting along very well” with Beijing and that a deal was close, in an interview with CNBC.

Even in the face of threats by US President Donald Trump to levy tariffs on countries that import Russian goods, analysts expect that China "will not stop" buying oil from its northern neighbour, given their mutually beneficial relationship of energy cooperation.
