WASHINGTON (Reuters) - U.S. President Donald Trump on Thursday said he had "been soft" on China on trade issues and said he was not happy that China had allowed oil shipments to go into North Korea.

"I have been soft on China because the only thing more important to me than trade is war," Trump said in an interview with The New York Times.
