China’s president, Xi Jinping, has called for Donald Trump to reach a compromise on trade, as discussions continue in an attempt to avert the imposition of heavy tariffs on goods.
Xinhua, a Chinese state-controlled news organisation, reported on Sunday that Xi told Trump in a telephone call that he had “hopes that both teams can meet each other halfway and reach an agreement beneficial to both countries and the world as early as possible”.
The presidents both expressed their willingness to implement agreements made on the sidelines of the G20 summit at the start of the month , Xinhua said.
On Saturday Trump declared he had made “big progress” in the discussion with Xi, after a week dominated by turmoil in Washington and volatility on global stock markets.
Trump wrote on Twitter that he had had “a long and very good call” with Xi regarding a possible deal.
