U.S. President Donald Trump said on Friday that he and Chinese President Xi Jinping made progress on a TikTok deal and agreed to a face-to-face meeting as soon as next month in South Korea.
“We made progress on many very important issues including Trade, Fentanyl, the need to bring the War between Russia and Ukraine to an end, and the approval of the TikTok Deal,” Trump wrote on social media.
Trump said that the two leaders would meet at the APEC summit in South Korea that begins next month and that he would go to China early next year. He also said Xi would come to the U.S. at a later date.
“The call was a very good one, we will be speaking again by phone, appreciate the TikTok approval, and both look forward to meeting at APEC!” Trump wrote.
The statement did not spell out the terms of an agreement between the leaders on TikTok. The White House did not immediately comment.
