US President Donald Trump on Friday (Sep 25) said that talks with Xi Jinping made progress for the United States and China. Trump made the remarks as he and First Lady Melania Trump hosted tea at the White House for Xi and his wife, Peng Liyuan, as the couple wrapped up their two-day Washington visit. Meanwhile, the Chinese president hinted at more meetings between the two leaders this year.
“I think we’ve made tremendous strides, we’ve made great strides, very positive for both countries,” Trump told reporters.
Xi hints at more meetings with Trump
Xi suggested that he may have more meetings with Trump this year. The two leaders are expected to meet at the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) meeting in China and later at the G20 Summit in the United States. He invited Trump and Melania to visit China.
“Looking ahead to the remainder of this year, there will be two more opportunities for us to meet each other – firstly the APEC meeting in China and then the G20 summit in the United States,” Xi said. “I do welcome you, Mr President and the First Lady, to visit China.”

Trump also said that he discussed the Iran war with Chinese President Xi Jinping during the Chinese leader’s three-day state visit to Washington, as the United States pressed Beijing over allegations of support for Tehran.
“We did, we did,” Trump told reporters when asked whether Iran had come up in his talks with Xi. The US president made the remarks while showing Xi around the National Archives in Washington on the final day of the visit.
Trump was also asked whether he expected progress on reopening the Strait of Hormuz, a key global energy route affected by the conflict.
“I think we’re going to do great,” Trump said.
Meanwhile, US Ambassador to China David Perdue said Trump had made Washington’s position clear during his discussions with Xi, telling the Chinese leader that direct or indirect assistance to Iran was “totally unacceptable.” He made the remarks in an interview with CNBC on Friday (Sep 25).
