Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer comments on the latest events in President Trump's tariff war with China: SEN. CHUCK SCHUMER: Early this morning, it was reported that Donald Trump caved to Xi Jinping and the Chinese Communist Party with virtually nothing to show for American workers.

US President Donald Trump said in an interview broadcast on Tuesday (May 13) that he could see himself dealing directly with Chinese President Xi Jinping on the final details of a US-China trade deal.

Chinese President Xi Jinping made first public comments since the US and China reached a trade truce. “Bullying or hegemonism only leads to self-isolation,” Xi told the audience at a summit with Latin American and Caribbean officials in Beijing on Tuesday.

Chinese President Xi Jinping and Russian President Vladimir Putin signed an agreement Thursday deepening their “strategic partnership” — a day after the Chinese autocrat took a swipe at the Trump administration.

China's President Xi Jinping will attend the opening of and deliver a speech at the China-CELAC Forum in Beijing on May 13, China's Foreign Ministry announced on Sunday.
