President Donald Trump said he has spoken with Chinese President Xi Jinping since his Jan. 20 inauguration, amid a brewing trade war between the two nations.

“Yeah, I’ve talked to him, and I talked to his people, too,” Trump told Fox News’ Bret Baier in an interview taped last week that aired on Monday. “His people come in all the time. We have a very good personal relationship.”
