Trump Criticizes EU and Japan Over Trade Negotiations

U.S. President Donald Trump has voiced frustration over ongoing trade discussions with the European Union and Japan, claiming that neither party has offered a fair deal. Speaking aboard Air Force One after departing the G7 summit in Canada, Trump stated that the EU has been "tough" in negotiations and has yet to present an acceptable agreement.
