Trump insists US-China relations are in a good place despite differences as he wraps up Beijing trip - WSVN 7News | Miami News, Weather, Sports

Trump said the two countries reached a constructive, stable relationship as talks continued on trade, Taiwan and Iran, with Chinese officials stressing cooperation.

  • On Friday, President Donald Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping concluded their summit in Beijing, with Xi characterizing the meetings as a "milestone" for stabilizing U.S.-China relations despite persistent disagreements.
  • Amid the 11-week-old Iran war that has surged energy prices, the leaders agreed the Strait of Hormuz must reopen to support global energy demands, as about 20% of the world's oil flowed through the waterway before the conflict began.
  • During private talks, Xi warned that mishandling differences on Taiwan could lead to "clashes and even conflicts," according to Chinese government officials, intensifying focus on the self-ruled island as the biggest risk to bilateral relations.
  • U.S. officials pursued specific trade commitments, including Chinese purchases of 200 Boeing jets and increased agricultural imports, while proposing a Board of Trade to address commercial differences between the nations.
  • Secretary of State Marco Rubio told NBC News that U.S. policy toward Taiwan remains "unchanged," even as the White House continues pressing China to stem the flow of illicit precursor chemicals into Mexico used for fentanyl.
