BEIJING, May 15. /TASS/. United States President Donald Trump has concluded his state visit to the People’s Republic of China and departed for the United States on a special flight, China Central Television reported.

Trump spent three days in China, during which he maintained a notably intensive schedule. During meetings with Chinese President Xi Jinping in both expanded and restricted formats, the sides discussed a number of pressing issues on the bilateral and international agenda, including the Ukrainian crisis and the conflict between the United States and Iran.

The United States president noted that Washington and Beijing hold largely similar positions on the Iranian issue, as both he and Xi Jinping seek an end to the armed confrontation. According to Trump, the United States and China reached "fantastic trade deals," with China investing hundreds of billions of dollars in US companies and reportedly planning to order 200 Boeing aircraft.

The Chinese foreign ministry emphasized that the visit contributed to strengthening trust between the leaders of the two countries.
