President Donald Trump posted on Truth Social to clarify that President Xi Jinping‘s comments about the United States being a declining nation were actually directed at the damage caused during Joe Biden‘s time in office. This came after reports suggested that Chinese leadership believes the US is currently in decline.
Trump arrived in China on Wednesday and immediately met with Xi. During their first official meeting, Trump told the Chinese leader, “It’s an honor to be your friend.” The diplomatic talks continued on Thursday, and Trump later told Fox News host Sean Hannity that Xi expressed interest in helping the US and Iran secure a peace deal involving the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz, according to Mediaite.
