Donald Trump issued a warning on Sunday that he would postpone his visit to China if Beijing does not help the United States open the Strait of Hormuz. The American president made the statement during an interview with the Financial Times.
Trump warns he will postpone China visit if Beijing won’t help open Strait of Hormuz
It should be noted that during his visit, he is scheduled to meet and hold talks with his counterpart Xi Jinping from March 31 to April 2.
“I think China should also help, because China imports 90% of its oil through the straits,” the American president stated. “We would like to know before then. It is (referring to the two weeks) a long time,” President Trump initially said, adding “we could postpone” the visit, without specifying for how long.
