Summit talks with Xi in Oct, Trump to visit China next year

Boosting trade, Tik Tok, fentanyl crisis among issues discussed, along with ways to end the Ukraine war

- 

US President Donald Trump said he would meet Chinese President Xi Jinping at a regional summit to take place at the end of October in South Korea and will visit China early next year, following a phone call with his Chinese counterpart on Friday.

In a Truth Social post, Trump also said the Chinese leader would come to the United states "at an appropriate time," noting the leaders also made progress on "the approval of the TikTok Deal." "The call was a very good one, we will be speaking again by phone, appreciate the TikTok approval, and both look forward to meeting at APEC!" Trump wrote, referring to the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation, a grouping of 21 economies on the Pacific Rim.

Neither Trump nor a readout of the call from Chinese state media gave any details on what was discussed about TikTok.
