Trump reveals Xi told him China will not invade Taiwan while he's US president

President Trump said Chinese President Xi Jinping assured him the People's Republic will not invade Taiwan while Trump is in office. Trump make the remarks during an interview Friday with Fox News' 'Special Report,' ahead of his sit-down in Alaska with Russian President Vladimir Putin over Moscow's war in Ukraine. 'I will tell you, you know, you have a very similar thing with President Xi of China and Taiwan, but I don't believe there's any way it's going to happen as long as I'm here. We'll see,' said Trump. 'He told me, 'I will never do it as long as you're president.' President Xi told me that, and I said, 'Well, I appreciate that,' but he also said, 'But I am very patient, and China is very patient.'' 3 President Trump said Chinese President Xi Jinping assured him China will not invade Taiwan while Trump is in office.

Putin praises ‘heroic' North Korean troops fighting in Ukraine, as two countries forge closer military ‘bonds'

Russian President Vladimir Putin heaped praise on North Korean troops fighting in Ukraine as 'heroic' in a letter penned to Kim Jong-un, North Korean state media reported. The two nations have been forging closer ties since Putin's war in Ukraine, with Kim deploying more than 12,000 North Korean troops to fight alongside Moscow. 4 Kim and Putin have grown closer since the war in Ukraine. KCNA/EPA/Shutterstock Advertisement 'The bonds of military friendship, goodwill and mutual aid, which were consolidated in the days of the war long ago, remain solid and reliable even today,' Putin wrote in the letter marking the anniversary of Korea's liberation from Japanese rule on Aug. 15, 1945, when both nations fought side-by-side. 'This was demonstrated by the heroic participation of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea's soldiers in liberating the territory of the Kursk region from the Ukrainian occupiers,' he said. 4 At least 12,000 North Korean soldiers have been sent to the front lines of the war in Ukraine. KCNA/EPA-EFE/Shutterstock Advertisement Pyongyang's wave of soldiers — many inexperienced in modern warfare — helped Russia retake the Kursk region following Ukraine's surprise counter-invasion last summer, which had left the Kremlin humiliated. 'The Russian people will keep forever the memories of their bravery and self-sacrifice,' Puttin added, according to the Korean Central News Agency, which reported the letter on Friday. 4 Kim is reportedly gearing up to send even more troops to fight alongside Russia, according to intelligence reports. AP The Russian strongman said the two countries would continue to 'act jointly and effectively defend their sovereignty and make a significant contribution to establishing a just and multi-polar world order.' Advertisement Putin's letter came alongside a visit to Pyongyang by a Russian delegation, thanking Kim for sending 'excellent soldiers' to Ukraine. Kim said he spoke with Putin by phone Wednesday, agreeing to increase cooperation and keep 'closer communication' between their countries. 4 Putin called the North Korean troops 'heroic' in a letter this week. AP Last month, South Korean intelligence warned North Korea was set to send 30,000 more troops to aid in Putin's war machine, while estimating the hermit kingdom was now supplying almost half of Russia's ammunition for its invasion.

Schumer to Trump: No Nobel Peace Prize for ‘selling out Ukraine'

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) tore into President Trump early Saturday after his high-stakes meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin in Alaska ended without a deal, accusing the president of 'selling out' Ukraine. 'Looks like once again Trump is selling out Ukraine and bowing down to dictator Putin,' he wrote on social media platform X. 'No Nobel Peace Prize for that.' His critique comes days after former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton quipped that she would nominate Trump for the coveted prize if he successfully squeezed a ceasefire agreement out of the Russian leader. Trump and Putin met at Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson in Anchorage, Alaska on Friday for a roughly three-hour discussion. While details of the conversation have not been released, the president touted the meeting as 'productive' and signaled that while progress was made, a deal was not yet on the table. 'We didn't get there, but we have a good chance,' he told reporters following the summit, but did not take questions. The president later briefed NATO and European leaders — who responded by doubling down on their support for Ukraine — on the meeting. Schumer, in separate comments late Friday, accused Trump of rolling out the red carpet for Putin, who he called an 'authoritarian thug.' 'Instead of standing with Ukraine and our allies, Trump stood shoulder to shoulder with an autocrat that has terrorized the Ukrainian people and the globe for years,' he wrote on X. 'While we wait for critical details of what was discussed — on first take it appears Trump handed Putin legitimacy, a global stage, zero accountability, and got nothing in return.' 'Our fear is that this wasn't diplomacy — it was just theater,' the New York Democrat added. Trump defended the outcome of the summit in an interview with Fox News's Sean Hannity late Friday, saying it is up to Putin and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to come to an agreement. Trump and Zelensky are expected to meet on Monday at the Oval Office. Clinton earlier this week said she would support Trump's quest for a Nobel Peace Prize if he is able to negotiate an end to the more than three-year war that repudiates the Kremlin's claims to Ukrainian territory. The president later expressed gratitude for his former opponent's remarks. Zelensky has pushed back on Trump's suggestion that any truce would likely require a land swap of territories Russia has taken over since it's 2022 invasion of Ukraine. 'We will never leave the Donbas,' the Ukrainian leader told reporters on Tuesday.
