(Updated - June 29, 2018 6:34 AM EDT)

President Trump repeatedly told top White House officials he wants to withdraw the U.S. from the WTO, according to Axios, citing people involved in the talks.

He has reportedly threatened to withdraw 100 times.

Mnuchin, speaking on Fox Business, said the Axios story earlier suggesting Trump told advisers to seek WTO withdrawal, is not breaking news, and not right. He called it an exaggeration.
