Trump slams 'hostile' China, says has no reason to meet Xi

U.S. President Donald Trump on Friday slammed China for hostile trade practices, including imposing export controls on rare earths, and said he no longer felt it necessary to meet President Xi Jinping at a summit later in the month.

In a long post on Truth Social, Trump also threatened Beijing with "massive" tariff hikes over the matter, with other major countermeasures "under consideration."
