US President Donald Trump made many big claims by posting a post on Truth Social after a phone conversation with Chinese President Xi Jinping. Trump described it as a ‘long and very positive’ conversation and said that many important issues were discussed in it. Trump wrote that the personal relationship between him and Xi Jinping is ‘very good’ and there will be many positive results between the two countries in the next three years.
What did Trump say on the claim of talking to Jinping?
The talks between Trump and Jinping on February 4, 2026 included trade, military, Trump’s visit to China in April, Taiwan, Russia-Ukraine war, situation in Iran, China’s purchase of oil and gas from the US, delivery of airplane engines and purchase of agricultural products. In particular, Trump claimed that China will increase its purchase of American soybeans to 20 million tons this season and to 25 million tons in the next season.
China rejected Trump’s claims outright
There is no mention of most of these claims of Trump in the report of China’s government news agency Xinhua. Xinhua only said that the two leaders discussed the state of US-China relations, expressed willingness to expand cooperation and called 2026 a year of ‘equal respect, peaceful coexistence and win-win cooperation’. There is no information in the China report about Trump’s claims about soybean, energy purchases, April trip or other trade deals. It seems that Xi Jinping emphasized and dominated the conversation on a sensitive issue like Taiwan.
Taiwan was cited as the main issue in the report, where Xi Jinping warned the US to exercise ‘extreme caution’ in selling arms to Taiwan and said that Taiwan is an integral part of China and will never be allowed to separate.
Trump on the path of diplomacy, but China adamant on red lines
This conversation between Trump and Jinping took place after their meeting in South Korea in October last year, where they agreed to a one-year trade truce. Now Trump is going to visit China in April, but it is clear from the statements of both sides that there are still deep differences on trade, Taiwan and other issues. Trump is emphasizing on diplomacy and personal relations, while China is strict on its ‘red lines’ like Taiwan.
Trump often makes such pre-emptive announcements and exaggerates negotiations to promote himself, as he did in the trade deal with India. There is a big difference in the statements of both the sides, but no concrete evidence or official agreement document has been released. Soybean futures have increased after Trump’s claim, but no confirmation came from China.
