() President-elect Donald Trump wants to visit China once he returns to the White House in an attempt to strengthen ties with Chinese President Xi Jinping, per the Wall Street Journal.

According to the report, Trump has told advisers he wishes to travel to the Eastern power within the first 100 days of his presidency, but no decision has been made.

Trump last visited China in 2017. He spoke with Xi via phone on Friday, discussing fentanyl, trade and the TikTok ban.

The president-elect has vowed to impose tariffs and other mechanisms against China, along with Mexico and Canada, upon his return to the White House.

“We both attach great importance to interaction, hope for a good start of the China-U.S. relationship during the new U.S. presidency and are willing to secure greater progress in China-U.S. relations from a new starting point,” Xi reportedly said on the call.

Trump confirmed on his Truth Social platform that he had spoken with Xi, saying, “The call was a very good one for both China and the U.S.A,” Trump wrote. “President Xi and I will do everything possible to make the World more peaceful and safe!”
