Chinese President Xi Jinping and U.S. President Donald Trump hopped on a phone call Friday to map out a brighter future for their nations 🤝. Xi told Trump that the Chinese mainland and the U.S. can achieve mutual success and shared prosperity, lifting up citizens on both sides and boosting global growth.
The key? Mutual respect, peaceful coexistence and win-win cooperation, Xi said, adding that working together can build a future where everyone benefits.
During the call, the leaders swapped views on hot topics—from trade talks to tech—and laid down strategic guidance for the next phase of China-U.S. relations. Both sides praised the practical, positive and constructive tone of the exchange.
Xi also reminded Trump of their shared history as World War II allies. Just weeks ago, the Chinese mainland marked the 80th anniversary of the victory in the War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression. Relatives of the Flying Tigers even caught the Tian’anmen military parade, symbolizing the deep bonds forged in tough times 🕊️.
Looking ahead, Xi urged the U.S. to handle trade issues by talking things through rather than imposing unilateral restrictions. On TikTok, he said the Chinese government respects market-driven negotiations and hopes for a solution that aligns with Chinese laws while protecting both sides’ interests.
For his part, Trump praised the WWII parade as stunning and said the U.S.-China relationship is the world’s most important one. He added that by working together, the two nations can score big wins for peace and stability. Trump also offered support for ongoing trade talks and resolving the TikTok matter through continued team consultations 📲.
In the end, both leaders expressed a desire to keep building a long-term, big and great partnership—one that balances competition with cooperation and steers the world toward peace.
