Xi Jinping holds phone talks with Donald Trump
Chinese President Xi Jinping held a telephone conversation with US President Donald Trump on Wednesday, according to China’s state broadcaster CCTV, which did not immediately provide details of the discussion.
The call comes amid a period of heightened diplomatic activity involving Beijing and Washington, as both powers navigate complex issues ranging from global security to economic relations. No official statement has yet clarified the topics addressed during the exchange.
The conversation took place only hours after President Xi held a video conference with Russian President Vladimir Putin, during which both leaders emphasized the strength and continuity of Sino-Russian relations. The timing of the two discussions has drawn attention from observers, highlighting China’s active engagement on multiple diplomatic fronts.
Relations between the United States and China remain marked by strategic rivalry, but direct communication between the two leaders is seen as an important channel for managing tensions and avoiding escalation.
