Beijing accused the US of interfering in internal affairs.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Speaking at an event on Tuesday, Trump was asked whether he had a message for people in Hong Kong. The president <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/article\/us-usa-trade-china-trump\/trump-says-near-deal-with-china-but-u-s-also-has-eye-on-hong-kong-idUSKBN1Y0237\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">responded<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cWe&#8217;re with them. I have a very good relationship, as you know, with President Xi. We&#8217;re in the final throes of a very important deal, I guess you could say one of the most important deals in trade ever.

Trump has the last word to that bill, and he might veto it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Nevertheless, the markets focused on the positive news about the potential trade deal. The national currencies of trade-reliant economies, like Australia, are pushed up by investors\u2019 optimism.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Besides Trump, the White House adviser Kellyanne Conway also confirmed that the US and China were very close to reaching an agreement after top negotiators from both sides had a phone call.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Yesterday, China&#8217;s Commerce Ministry <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/currencylive.com\/101596-gbp-aud-is-mildly-bearish-all-eyes-on-us-china-trade-talks\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">revealed <\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">that the participants of the call were US Trade Representative Robert Lighthizer, Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin and Chinese Vice Premier Liu.<\/span><\/p>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td><a href=\"https:\/\/wise.com\/?utm_source=currencylive-com&utm_medium=affiliate&utm_content=news%2Fwp_json%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fposts%2F82725&utm_campaign=news\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-65277\" style=\"padding-top: 5px;\" src=\"https:\/\/currencylive.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/transferwise-inline-banner-money-transfer.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"670\" height=\"125\" \/><\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<hr \/>\n<h6><em>Currencylive.com<\/em><em> is a news site only and not a currency trading platform.<\/em><\/h6>\n<h6><em>Currencylive.com is a site operated by TransferWise Inc.
