US President Donald Trump said he held an “excellent” phone call with his Chinese counterpart Xi Jinping, Euronews writes.

The sides discussed many things, from trade to the war in Ukraine. Topping the agenda of their talks was the situation in Iran.

Trump shared that he and his Chinese counterpart also talked about a range of other critical issues to the US-China relationship, including trade, Taiwan and his plans to visit Beijing in April.

“The relationship with China, and my personal relationship with President Xi, is an extremely good one, and we both realise how important it is to keep it that way,” Trump said in a social media posting about the call.
