U.S. President Donald Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping plan to meet at the G-20 summit in Argentina in late November, The Wall Street Journal reported on Thursday, citing officials in both countries.

On the U.S. side, the meeting is being pushed by Treasury Secretary Stephen Mnuchin and National Economic Council Director Larry Kudlow, the Journal reported.

"The two men, who have worried about market reaction to the trade fight, have been trying to get negotiations on track for months, with little success," the Journal explained.

Kudlow also told CNBC that talks or the topics the leaders would address have not “been set in concrete.”

“They have lots to talk about. So we’ll see,” Kudlow told CNBC’s “Squawk on the Street.”.

Meanwhile, Trump warned on Thursday there was much more he could do that would hurt China’s economy further, showing no signs of backing off an escalating trade war with Beijing.

Trump imposed tariffs on nearly $200 billion of Chinese imports last month and then threatened more levies if China retaliated. China then hit back with tariffs on about $60 billion of U.S. imports.

“It’s had a big impact,” Trump said in a Fox News interview. “Their economy has gone down very substantially and I have a lot more to do if I want to do it.

“I don’t want to do it, but they have to come to the table.”

However, Trump said the Chinese want to negotiate but he does not believe they are ready and he told them so. He blamed previous U.S. presidents for allowing China to pursue unfair trade practices and said he had to tell Beijing, “It’s over.”

“They lived too well for too long and, frankly, I guess they think the Americans are stupid people. Americans are not stupid people. We were led badly when it came to trade,” Trump told “Fox & Friends.”

The growing trade war prompted the International Monetary Fund on Tuesday to cut its global economic growth forecasts for 2018 and 2019.
