WASHINGTON—U.S. President Donald Trump on Tuesday said his relationship with Chinese leader Xi Jinping has frayed in the wake of the novel coronavirus pandemic and that he has not spoken to the Chinese leader in a long time.
“I used to have a very good relationship with him,” Trump told Fox Sports Radio in an interview, citing their Phase 1 trade deal last year. “I had a great relationship with President Xi. I like him, but I don’t feel the same way now.”
