China’s Xi calls Trump, urges peaceful approach to North Korea

BEIJING – Chinese President Xi Jinping urged President Trump to find a peaceful solution to the crisis on the Korean peninsula during a telephone call between the two leaders early Wednesday, Chinese state media reported.

The phone call comes just four days after the pair held face-to-face talks in Florida but just hours after Trump tweeted that North Korea was “looking for trouble” and reiterated that the United States would “solve the problem” with or without China’s help.
