President Donald Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping spoke by phone on Monday to discuss trade, Taiwan and Ukraine, according to the White House and Chinese officials.
Xi told Trump in a phone call Monday that Taiwan’s return to mainland China is “an important part of the post-war international order," according to China’s official news agency Xinhua.
A White House official confirmed that the call happened on Monday morning but offered no details of the call.
The conversation came after Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi recently said Japan’s military could get involved if China were to take action against Taiwan, the self-governing island that Beijing says must come under its rule.
