By Aditya Bhagchandani Published on June 5, 2025, 20:22 IST United States President Donald Trump on Thursday said he had a 'very good' and detailed phone conversation with Chinese President Xi Jinping, primarily focused on trade issues, including the complexities surrounding rare earth products. Trump said the call lasted nearly one and a half hours and concluded positively for both countries. Posting on Truth Social, Trump shared that the two leaders discussed the implementation of their recently agreed trade deal, which has been under scrutiny after Trump accused Beijing of backtracking on tariff commitments. Trump reiterated that while he respects Xi, he finds him 'extremely hard to make a deal with.' Trump said, 'There should no longer be any questions respecting the complexity of Rare Earth products,' indicating that previous concerns on rare earth supply chains might now be resolved. He confirmed that trade delegations from both nations will meet soon, with the U.S. side to be represented by Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick, and U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer. The exact location and timing will be announced later. The Chinese state-run Xinhua News Agency also confirmed the call was made at Trump's request.
