The euro declined against its major counterparts in the Asian session on Friday, as investors became cautious ahead of the highly anticipated meeting between U.S. President Donald Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping amid uncertainty over progress in talks to resolve the stalemate.

Sentiment faded White House economic adviser Larry Kudlow maintained his threat to impose new tariffs on Chinese goods if talks do not end in progress at the Group of 20 summit in Japan starting today.

Kudlow also said there are no preconditions set for the U.S.-China trade meeting.

The Wall Street Journal had reported Thursday that China President Xi Jinping is expected to present the U.S. trade coalition with a set of terms, including the lifting of ban on the sale of U.S. technology to Huawei before Beijing will settle the trade dispute.
