Full Quotes:

Q: Meeting with Xi?

A: Numerous times, so we're leading and going to Rome, where we'll be attending the funeral Pope Francis. Some of you are going to go, anybody going and going to be very interesting. We're going to meet with a lot of the foreign leaders they want to meet. Trade deals are going very well. I think Russia and Ukraine, I think they're coming along. We hope, very fragile. And Iran, I think is going very well. We'll see what happens. Working on plenty of things that shouldn't be worked over, good. None of this stuff should have happened. This should have been taken place by Biden. It should have been fixed by Biden, but he couldn't nor did he come close to doing it....we're going to Rome to pay respect, and we'll be leaving that same day. We'll be coming back home tomorrow night, and I'll see some of you over there. Otherwise, I'll see you on television. This morning. You said you spoke with President Xi.

Q: Have you spoken to him since the tariffs?

I don't want to comment on that, but I've spoken to him many times.

Q: Have you met with Japan

A: I'm getting along very well with Japan. We're very close to a deal. I'll be meeting with the Italian prime minister.

Q: On the pope

A: He loved the world actually, and he was a good Christian event. I met him twice. I thought he was a fantastic kind of a guy.

Q: When did he speak to Xi?

A: I'll let you know at the appropriate time. Let's see if we can make a deal.

"Meeting with Putin right now as we speak. And we have a lot of things going on, and I think in the end, we're going to end up with a lot of good deals, including tariff deals and trade deals. We're going to make our country rich, but we're going to try and get out of war so that we can save 5000 people a week. And that's what my aim is. I want to save 5,000 young men. They happen to be mostly Ukrainian Russian, 5000 young Ukrainian and Russian men. And that's, that's a big honor. If I can do it, I think, I think we're pretty close. No deadline. I just want to do it as fast as possible. What do What I think the tariff land is doing very well. We're resetting the table. We're going to make our country, very rich, very, very rich. It's already happening. Thank you very much.
