President-elect Donald Trump and Chinese leader Xi Jinping have discussed trade, fentanyl and TikTok in a phone call Friday, just days before Trump heads back to the White House.
President-elect Trump spoke Friday with Chinese President Xi Jinping by phone just days before the U.S. presidential inauguration. Why it matters: Trump said last month he exchanged messages with Xi after winning the election but didn't confirm they spoke.
U.S. President-elect Donald Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping discussed issues including TikTok, trade and Taiwan in a phone call on Friday, just days before Trump takes office again promising tariffs that could ratchet up tensions between the world's two biggest economies.

President Donald Trump said from the White House that he's looking at a 10% tariff on imports from China. He pushed Xi Jinping crack down on fentanyl.
Immediately after the conversation with Xi, Trump wrote on his social media page Truth Social that the discussion was very good for both Beijing and Washington
