YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

President Donald Trump said China's Xi Jinping largely agrees with him on the risks of Iran becoming a nuclear power. #trump #china #iran #politics #worldnews #usa

Trump said he did not push Xi to pressure Tehran to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, but predicted Xi would do so.

Trump said he would accept a pledge from Iran to forgo enriching uranium to weapons-grade levels for 20 years, but the current offer was insufficient.
