米べい中ちゅう首脳しゅのうが電話でんわ会談かいだん 追加ついか関税かんぜい引き下ひきさげ協議きょうぎ 近ちかく代表だいひょう会合かいごうで一致いっち

U.S. President Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping held a telephone conversation on the night of the 5th and agreed that, based on the agreement reached in May to mutually lower additional tariffs, representatives from both sides will soon meet.

Also, during the meeting, President Xi invited President Trump to China, and President Trump also invited President Xi to the United States.

According to announcements by both the U.S. and Chinese governments, President Trump and President Xi Jinping held a phone conversation for about an hour and a half on the night of the 5th, during which they exchanged views on agreements such as reducing the additional tariffs that both countries had imposed on each other in May by 15% and holding talks over the next 90 days.

According to the Chinese side, President Xi said, China has seriously implemented the agreement.

The United States should assess progress based on facts and withdraw negative measures against China, he said, emphasizing that both sides should abide by the agreement.

And both leaders agreed that their teams would hold a new meeting as soon as possible.

After the meeting, President Trump responded to questions from reporters at the White House, saying, It was a very good meeting.

We have organized several points of the agreement, mainly those related to rare earths, he said, indicating that the issue raised by the U.S. side—claiming that China was delaying exports of rare earths and other materials—was also moving toward a resolution.

On top of that, President Xi invited me to China, and I also invited President Xi to the United States.

Both sides have accepted the invitation and promised to visit each other.

This is the first time that a telephone conversation between the two leaders has been made public since President Trump began his second term, and the focus is on whether the heightened tensions between the U.S. and China will ease.

On the other hand, according to the Chinese statement, President Xi also mentioned the Taiwan issue during the talks, emphasizing that “the United States should handle it with caution and should avoid allowing a very small number of ‘Taiwan independence’ elements to push the two countries into a dangerous situation of conflict and confrontation.”

President Trump to screen and accept students from China After holding a telephone conference with Chinese President Xi Jinping, President Trump was asked by reporters at the White House about Secretary of State Rubios announcement that the U.S. would begin revoking visas for Chinese students who have ties to the Chinese Communist Party.

President Trump responded, Chinese students will come.

No problem.

It is an honor to welcome them.

We want to welcome foreign students.

However, he stated, I want them to be screened, and emphasized that they will continue to accept Chinese international students who are determined to have no problems as a result of the screening.
