習近平、特朗普
美國總統特朗普周五（7月20日）再次在twitter發帖攻擊中國及歐盟，指責中國及歐盟操控匯率及壓低利率。他又再次批評美國聯儲局加息，導致美元匯價愈來愈強，損害美國的競爭力，他指美國不應該因為做得好（指經濟走勢）而受到加息的懲罰。
中美貿易戰可能升溫，特朗普此前揚言，需要的話，他會向進口的五千億美元中國貨品加徵關稅，相當於去年中國進口美國的貨品總價值。RFI 指特朗普接受美國電視台專訪時表示，這樣做不是為了政治，而是為國家做對的事。他認為，美國被中國佔便宜太長時間，包括在貿易和貨幣政策上。
China, the European Union and others have been manipulating their currencies and interest rates lower, while the U.S. is raising rates while the dollars gets stronger and stronger with each passing day - taking away our big competitive edge. As usual, not a level playing field...

....The United States should not be penalized because we are doing so well. Tightening now hurts all that we have done. The U.S. should be allowed to recapture what was lost due to illegal currency manipulation and BAD Trade Deals. Debt coming due & we are raising rates - Really?
