'Something like Tiananmen Square' in Hong Kong would make a trade deal 'more difficult,' Pompeo says
A trade deal between the U.S. and China would be less likely if President Xi Jinping's government cracks down violently on the large-scale protests in Hong Kong, Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said Tuesday.
Pompeo told CNBC's "Squawk Box" that it would be "more difficult" to reach a trade deal if the protests end "in a way that there was violence – the president said something like Tiananmen Square." "I hope that the trade negotiations move forward, and I hope that Hong Kong is resolved in a peaceful way. Those would be the best outcomes for both China and the United States," Pompeo said.
