Xi Jinping Urges Trump to Halt Unilateral Tariffs Amid TikTok Talks

Chinese President Xi Jinping has urged U.S. President Donald Trump to cease imposing unilateral tariffs, as both sides welcome further negotiations over TikTok. This call, the first in three months, has been described as positive and constructive, according to Chinese state media.

In the conversation, President Xi emphasized China's respect for corporate autonomy and outlined the country's stance on reaching mutually agreeable solutions based on market principles, all while adhering to Chinese laws and regulations.

The future of TikTok remained unresolved, as the Chinese government expressed hope for a balanced resolution. While the White House has yet to comment on the matter, the issue remains a pivotal point in U.S.-China trade relations.
