WASHINGTON: White House economic adviser Larry Kudlow on Thursday said the Trump administration is satisfied with China's progress in meeting commitments to purchase U.S. goods in a Phase 1 trade deal, signaling that the pact will survive an initial review on Saturday.
China "is now really picking their imports of our commodities -- which is a great boon, by the way, for the U.S. agriculture and farm sector," Kudlow told reporters at the White House, recounting U.S. Trade Representative Robert Lighthizer's comments to President Donald Trump.
