The Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi has rejected an accusation made by President Trump that Beijing is interfering in November's US congressional elections. Mr. Trump told the UN Security Council that Beijing didn't want his republican party to win because his administration was challenging China on trade.
Speaking afterwards at the press conference, Mr. Trump added that Beijing was wary of his powerful intellect. If you look at Mr. Pillsbury, the leading authority on China, he was on a good show - I won't mention the name of the show - recently.
And he was saying that China has total respect for Donald Trump and for Donald Trump's very very large a brain. He said without Donald Trump, they don't know what to do.
President Trump has said that he doesn't have a time frame for North Korea to dispose of its nuclear weapons. He made the comments after his Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said he planned to visit Pyongyang next month.
The International Monetary Fund has agreed to speed up a batch of emergency loans to Argentina and provide a bigger bailout than initially planned. The IMF Managing Director Christine Lagarde said it was the largest ever program of payments put together by the IMF.
