President-elect Joe Biden says he won’t immediately lift tariffs placed by President Trump on many imports from China or break Trump’s initial trade deal.
Biden says he wants to maximize his leverage in future talks with the United States’ geopolitical rival.
Speaking to The New York Times columnist Thomas Friedman, Biden said, “I’m not going to make any immediate moves, and the same applies to the tariffs.” Biden said in a column published Wednesday: “I’m not going to prejudice my options.”
