China hits back after US Prez claims it is 'violating' tariff truce

Washington, May 30 (UNI) US President Donald Trump on Friday accused China of violating a two-week-old truce on tariffs, a claim China has responded to with its own accusations of US wrongdoing, media reports said.
Washington and Beijing agreed to temporarily lower tit-for-tat tariffs after talks in Geneva earlier this month.
But Trump said that China had "totally violated its agreement with us". He did not give details but US Trade Representative Jamieson Greer later said China had not been removing non-tariff barriers as agreed under the deal, BBC reported.
