May 15 (UPI) -- U.S. President Donald Trump on Friday hailed his China trip as "incredible" and said Washington and Beijing had reached "fantastic trade deals" as his two-day summit with Chinese President Xi Jinping concluded in Beijing.
Speaking ahead of a lunch meeting with Xi at Zhongnanhai, the walled Communist Party leadership complex in central Beijing, Trump said the talks had yielded major progress on trade, though he did not announce any concrete agreements.
"It's been an incredible visit," Trump told reporters from an ornate pavilion overlooking a lake and landscaped gardens inside the compound.
"I think a lot of good has come of it. We've made some fantastic trade deals, really for both countries."
