The euro strengthened against its major opponents in the European session on Tuesday, as sentiment bolstered after U.S. President Donald Trump said that he was optimistic about resolving the U.S. trade dispute with China.

"He just got back from China. We'll let you know in about three or four weeks whether or not it was successful ... but I have a feeling it's going to be very successful," Trump said, referring to U.S. Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin's recent trade talks in Beijing.

Final data from Destatis showed that Germany's consumer price inflation accelerated as initially estimated to its highest level in five months in April.

Meanwhile, survey data from the ZEW-Leibniz Centre for European Economic Research showed that Germany's economic sentiment weakened unexpectedly in May.
