And the question remains for most people: Is he really intent on carrying out the threat (the first tariffs are to take effect on July 6) or is this merely an “in-your-face” negotiating tactic to cut a better deal for the United States?

When US President Donald Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong-un sat together for a working lunch on Tuesday, they saw two Chinese dishes on the menu - Yangzhou fried rice and sweet and sour pork.
