Two days of trade talks between the United States and China ended without a reached agreement on May 10. After the talks concluded, U.S. President Donald Trump said there was no rush to reach a trade deal.

In a Twitter post, Trump said the two sides held “candid and constructive conversations,” adding that discussions would continue in the future.
