Trump Says Xi Offered To Help Broker Peace With Iran
President Donald Trump said Thursday Chinese leader Xi Jinping told him in meetings that his country “would like to be of help” in negotiating an end to the Iran war and reopening the Strait of Hormuz to oil shipments. “But he said, ‘I would love to be a help, if I can be of any help whatsoever,’” Trump said in an interview with Fox News’ Sean Hannity. “He’d like to see the Hormuz strait open. He said, ‘If I can be of any help whatsoever, I would like to help.’” Before leaving for his state visit in Beijing, Trump said the U.S. did not need China’s assistance on resolving the conflict.
