02:57US President Donald Trump said that Iran would "suffer greatly" if they "do anything" while speaking alongside Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban at the White House in Washington DC on Monday.
"If they do anything it will be a very bad mistake, if they do anything. I'm hearing little stories about Iran, if they do anything, they will suffer greatly, we'll see what happens with Iran," Trump said, adding "they are not going to be happy people, you can figure it out yourself. They know what I mean by it."
Trump also said that China "has been taking advantage of the US" on trade for many years, adding "it's been taking out 400, 500, 600 billion dollars a year out of the United States. And we can't let that happen."
The remarks came after China announced it will increase tariffs on 60 billion dollars of US goods earlier in the day, a move that followed the US decision to ramp up tariffs on 200 billion dollars of Chinese products on Friday.
Trump also confirmed that he will meet with Chinese President Xi Jinping at the upcoming G-20 summit in Osaka, saying it will be "a very fruitful meeting," and added that he will meet with Russian President Vladimir Putin as well.
