On Tuesday, U.S. lawmakers said that they would try to stop President Donald Trump from easing penalties on Chinese telecommunications company ZTE. Lawmakers said that the United States should not bow to pressure from Beijing to help the troubled firm as part of a possible trade deal. The reaction from Capitol Hill could complicate the Trump administration’s efforts to narrow a $335 billion annual trade gap with China.
