President Xi Jinping and U.S. President Donald Trump had a private meeting at Zhongnanhai in Beijing on Friday.

The meeting came a day after Xi held talks with Trump, who was on a state visit to China from Wednesday to Friday.

Noting that Trump's visit was a historic and landmark one, Xi said the two sides set the new vision of building a constructive China-U.S. relationship of strategic stability.

The two sides have reached important common understandings on maintaining stable economic and trade ties, expanding practical cooperation in various fields, and properly addressing each other's concerns, Xi said.

The two sides also agreed to strengthen communication and coordination on international and regional issues, said Xi, noting that the visit is conducive to enhancing mutual understanding, deepening mutual trust and improving the well-being of the two peoples.

This once again demonstrates that it is a shared aspiration of both peoples and the expectation of people across the world for China and the United States to find a right path to get along with each other and to achieve peaceful coexistence and win-win cooperation on the basis of mutual respect, Xi added.

Xi said that while President Trump hopes to make America great again, he is dedicated to leading the Chinese people toward national rejuvenation, stressing that the two countries can advance their respective development and revitalization by strengthening cooperation.

China and the United States should implement the important common understandings that have been reached, cherish the hard-won positive momentum, keep to the right direction, steer clear of disruptions, and promote the steady development of bilateral relations, Xi said.

Trump said that he is very grateful to Xi for inviting him to visit Zhongnanhai, noting that his China visit has captured the world's attention and is very successful and unforgettable.

The two sides reached a series of important consensuses as well as multiple agreements and resolved a lot of problems, which are of great benefit to both countries and the world, said Trump.

Trump said Xi is his old friend and he holds great respect for Xi, noting the relationship between the United States and China is very important and will surely get better and better.

Trump said that he is willing to continue to maintain sincere and in-depth communication with President Xi, and warmly looks forward to hosting Xi in Washington, D.C.

The two sides also exchanged views on some regional hotspot issues.
