The secretary of the Treasury, Scott Besent, said on Sunday about “Meet The Press” of ABC that the commercial negotiations of the Trump administration with several Asian countries are “moving very well.”
Host Martha Raddatz said: “Let’s talk about the Time Interview with President Trump. He said he has made 200 agreements in rates. 200 offers? Who have you made deals with? Is there any real treatment at this time? “
Besent replied: “I think that refers to the sub -basis within the negotiations we are doing.”
Raddatz said: “But those are not real offers.”
Besent said: “Martha, if there are 180 countries and 18 important commercial partners, let’s put China aside because that is a special negotiation. There are 17 important commercial partners, and we have an established process. They, and Vrotian, especially with Asian countries.”
He added that we have had several of these Asian countries and they have said: “Oh, well, we will stop doing this, this and this.” And I look at these lists, and I think, how do we get here? Because the negotiation system has been so unfair. As President Trump says, I do not blame countries. He blames the previous administrations that allow them to leave with his. “
