上周与《华尔街日报》谈到当前的贸易磋商时，布兰斯塔德大使表示谈判人员仍“需要进一步缩小他们在立场上的差距，包括有关一份潜在协议的强力执行”。

Speaking to the Wall Street Journal last week about current trade negotiations, Ambassador Branstad said negotiators still “need to further narrow the gap in their positions, including over the enforcement of a potential deal.”
