YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

President Donald Trump in recent days has offerred mixed messages about the status of talks with China, even as Beijing has denied that negotiations between the world’s two largest economies are taking place.

“We’re meeting with China. We’re doing fine with everybody,” Trump said in an interview with Time Magazine published earlier Friday.

But he also told Time he would not call President Xi Jinping if his Chinese counterpart does not call him first. Then Trump said such a call had occurred, without giving details.

“He’s called. And I don’t think that’s a sign of weakness on his behalf,” Trump said.

The US president declined to answer when asked by reporters Friday when he spoke with Xi, saying, “I’ll let you know at the appropriate time. Let’s see if we can make a deal.”
