US President Donald Trump and Chinese leader Xi Jinping held a “good” meeting in Beijing on Thursday, the White House said, in a readout that did not include any reference to Taiwan.

“President Trump had a good meeting with President Xi of China. The two sides discussed ways to enhance economic cooperation,” the White House said in a statement.

It made no mention of discussions on self-ruled Taiwan that Xi earlier said could cause a “conflict” between China and the United States should the issue be mishandled.
