WASHINGTON — President Trump claimed Friday that he and Chinese President Xi Jinping “made progress” on a deal to keep TikTok available in the US — and announced that he will visit Beijing early next year.
“I just completed a very productive call with President Xi of China. 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,” Trump wrote on Truth Social following the morning call.
Trump, 79, also said that he and Xi, 72, agreed to meet at the APEC summit set for Oct. 31-Nov. 1 in South Korea and the Chinese leader would come to the US “at an appropriate time.”
