Trump to meet Xi at APEC summit in South Korea
President Donald Trump will meet Chinese President Xi Jinping in November on the sidelines of the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation summit in South Korea.
Trump confirmed the pair’s first face-to-face meeting of his second term in a social media post on Friday after the two leaders spoke on the phone for approximately two hours.
“I just completed a very productive call with President Xi of China,” Trump wrote on Truth Social. “We made progress on many very important issues including Trade, Fentanyl, the need to bring the War between Russia and Ukraine to an end, and the approval of the TikTok Deal.”
In addition to the pair’s meeting during the APEC summit, Trump added that he intends to “go to China in the early part of next year, and that President Xi would, likewise, come to the United States at an appropriate time.”
“The call was a very good one, we will be speaking again by phone, appreciate the TikTok approval, and both look forward to meeting at APEC!” Trump wrote.
