President Donald Trump has praised his “amazing” negotiations with Chinese President Xi Jinping, even though Beijing appears to have walked away with the upper hand.
The 79-year-old met his Chinese counterpart on Thursday in South Korea as the U.S. and China try to patch up the trade war triggered by Trump’s tariffs and ease rising tensions between the two economic superpowers.
Speaking to reporters aboard Air Force One, Trump rattled off a list of vague agreements he claimed the two leaders reached, touching on issues surrounding soybeans, fentanyl, rare earth minerals, and tariffs, while flying nearly 7,000 miles back to Washington.
