The conflict between Moscow and Kiev “came up very strongly” during his talks with Xi Jinping, the US leader has said

US President Donald said that he had agreed with his Chinese counterpart, Xi Jinping, that Washington and Beijing would “work together” on a settlement to the Ukraine conflict.

Trump made the claim aboard Air Force One as he was departing South Korea, where he held a face-to-face meeting with Xi earlier on Thursday.

”Ukraine came up very strongly. We talked about it for a long time, and we are both going to work together to see if we can get something done,” the US leader said.

Trump said that he and Xi “agree that the sides are locked in fighting and sometimes you gotta let them fight, I guess.”

“But [Xi is] going to help us, and we are going to work together on Ukraine. Not a lot more we can do,” he added.
