U. S. President Donald Trump told Reuters he would intervene in the case of arrested Huawei executive Meng Wanzhou if he believed it could secure a better trade deal with China.

"If I think it’s good for the country, if I think it’s good for what will be certainly the largest trade deal ever made – which is a very important thing – what’s good for national security – I would certainly intervene if I thought it was necessary,” Trump told Reuters in the Oval Office.

Meng was arrest Dec. 1 in Canada for allegedly violating U.S. sanctions against Iran. She was granted bail Tuesday in Vancouver.
