Trump Calls China Visit ‘Historic,’ Announces Major Trade Agreements

U.S. President Donald Trump has described his recent visit to China as successful and historic, saying the trip resulted in major trade agreements and strengthened ties between Washington and Beijing.

Speaking to reporters at the White House after returning from China, Trump said the United States now enjoys “excellent relations” with China and hinted that more details about the agreements would be revealed soon.

Earlier, while talking to journalists, Trump said he would not oppose suspending Iran’s nuclear program for 20 years, provided Tehran demonstrates genuine commitment to any agreement.
