US President Donald Trump on Thursday called on Chinese President Xi Jinping over a long wait phone when leaders of the world’s two largest economies tried to avoid trade war.
Trump said the call came to a “very positive conclusion” and he agreed to meet personally – but Beijing issued a more silent red out saying that XI talked about the need for “correcting the course”.
The call – was publicly announced after Trump returned to power in January – after Beijing and Washington accused each other of risking a trade war in Geneva.
“This call lasted for almost an hour and a half,” Trump said on the truth, and as a result, there was a very positive conclusion for the two countries. “
Trump added, “President XI invited the first lady and me to meet China, and I took revenge on it. As the presidents of two great countries, this is something we both are waiting for.”
Trump said he would later announce the time and place of “meeting soon”.
However, the two leaders did not discuss the attack on Russia’s Ukraine, Trump has long said that despite US hopes, Beijing could affect Moscow to end the war.
“The conversation was almost focused on the trade,” he said, adding that he hopes the problems of the extraordinary land used in tech products have been solved.
The relations between the superpowers rivals Beijing and Washington have been full since Trump introduced a worldwide sweeping tariff in April, which targeted China the most.
On one occasion, the United States targeted China with 145 % additional levies on its luggage as both sides engaged in an increase in tight tate. China’s response measures on US goods reached 125 %.
Trump recently accused Wednesday of “a dealing deal with” on Wednesday.
Chinese state media said that Trump had requested a call. The White House was not immediately confirmed.
Correcting the course
Beijing said in reading more of its stopping that relations need more work.
“According to the state news agency Xinhua, XI told Trump,” We need to drive and go well to fix the path of a large ship of China and the United States, especially to eliminate all kinds of interference and even destruction, which is especially important, “
He said that XI told Trump that after the first visit to the first term in 2017, he was welcomed to visit China again.
Until Thursday, despite repeated claims to the two leaders, the Republican had not had more than five months after returning to power that such a call was near.
Trump said in an interview with Time Magazine in April that XI had called him – but Beijing insisted that there was no call recently.
Beijing and Washington agreed to reduce their surprisingly higher prices in Geneva last month in Geneva for 90 days, but the two sides have since accused of removing the deal.
Trump argued last week that China had “completely violated” the deal, without providing further details.
The Chinese Ministry of Commerce withdrew this week this week, saying that the Trump administration has introduced “discriminatory sanctions measures”, which includes the cancellation of Chinese student visas in the United States.
Trump then dialed the tension this week.
“I like the President of China, always happens, and always happens, but it is very tough, and it is extremely difficult to deal with it !!!” He posted on Wednesday on his social platform.
Meanwhile, Washington has targeted Chinese citizens who entered the United States legally and illegally, the president has pledged to aggressively cancel Chinese students’ visas.
Trump on Wednesday promoted separate tensions with other trade partners, pledging to double global prices on steel and aluminum.
