(VOVWORLD) - US President Donald Trump said Thursday that Washington is considering ending its economic relationship with China, despite both countries having committed to a bilateral trade agreement intended to resolve a trade conflict that has lasted for a whole year.

President Trump said on Twitter that the US might completely break off with China.
The tweet came after US Trade Representative Robert Lighthizer told Congress he did not see decoupling the US and Chinese economies, as a viable option as China is still complying with the bilateral trade agreement signed earlier this year.
