BANGKOK (Reuters) -Thailand's negotiations with Washington on steep trade tariffs were postponed because the United States has asked Bangkok to review important issues, Prime Minister Paetongtarn Shinawatra said on Tuesday.

A new meeting date was being scheduled, she said. The previous date for talks was April 23.
