Trump says he doubts 'big' India deal will be completed before U.S. elections

摘要

The U.S. is eyeing a "very big" trade deal with India that might not come to fruition until after U.S. elections in November, President Trump told reporters on Tuesday. His remarks came as the White House prepares for a presidential visit to New Delhi next week, where a partial trade deal in the works for months could be announced. U.S. Trade Representative Robert Lighthizer was expected to travel to India this month, ahead of Trump, but reportedly has held phone conversations with his Indian counterpart instead.
