Trump touts 'very good' call with China's Xi

WASHINGTON (Reuters) -U.S. President Donald Trump said he held a "very good" phone call with Chinese President Xi Jinping on Monday during which the leaders discussed the war in Ukraine, fentanyl trafficking and a deal for farmers.

"We have done a good, and very important, deal for our Great Farmers — and it will only get better. Our relationship with China is extremely strong!," he said in a Truth Social post. Trump also said he had accepted Xi's invitation to visit China in April and that Xi would visit the U.S. later in the year.
