“They’ve really taken advantage of our country for a very long time. They’ve cheated us. And I’m talking about many presidents—not just a few. But they did it,” he stressed.

Trump said the high tariffs he implemented during his presidency were aimed at restructuring the domestic economic system and restoring the United States’ bargaining power in global trade.

“All we’re doing is restoring things to how they should be. We’re reorganizing, and I believe we can work together very well,” he explained.

The president also expressed his respect for Chinese President Xi Jinping and optimism about the potential outcome of future negotiations.

“I have great respect for President Xi. He has been a friend of mine for a long time. And I think we will be able to achieve something very good for both countries. I look forward to it,” Trump added.
