Sino-US Leaders Xi Jinping and Donald Trump Hold Phone Call
Chinese President Xi Jinping and US President-elect Donald Trump recently had a phone conversation to discuss various issues, as reported by Xinhua. While the details of their discussion were not disclosed by the agency, Trump later confirmed on the social network Truth Social that they had talked about trade issues and the potential ban of the short-video app TikTok in the US.
In his statement, Trump expressed his commitment to working with President Xi to make the world a more peaceful and secure place. The discussion surrounding TikTok stems from a law signed by the current US President Joe Biden in April 2024, which requires China’s ByteDance to cease operations of the app in the US by January 19, 2025.
As geopolitical tensions continue to shape international relations, the conversation between President Xi and President-elect Trump highlights the importance of dialogue and cooperation in addressing global challenges.
