President Donald Trump said he received a “beautiful letter” from Chinese President Xi Jinping and that the two leaders would probably speak by phone, as a delegation from Beijing arrives in Washington to negotiate a potential trade deal.
Speaking Thursday at the White House, Trump said it’s still possible that the U.S. and China reach a deal this week.
“I think it’ll be a very strong day,” Trump said. But, he added, “I have no idea what’s going to happen.”
