No plans to speak to Chinese president Xi Jinping, says Donald Trump

Live Mint  

US President Donald Trump has indicated that he has no plan to speak with his Chinese counterpart Xi Jinping, amid a war of words between the two countries on a range of issues and tit-for-tat sanctions on lawmakers and senior officials. "I have no plan to speak to him," the president said while expressing his anger over China's inability to prevent the spread of the coronavirus out of the country, from where it originated. Beijing has condemned Washington's recent bid reject its claims in the South China Sea as illegal and has retaliated against US visa restrictions on Chinese officials in Xinjiang by banning senior American senators and representatives. At his press conference, Trump also slammed former vice president Joe Biden, who is his Democratic Party challenger in the November presidential polls, for being "soft" on China. And he said on July 4 that American history is no fairy tale, and yet blindly celebrates China, saying few nations in history have come so far, so fast," Trump said.
