US President Donald Trump and his Chinese counterpart Xi Jinping began a crucial meeting Saturday on resolving a dispute that risks locking the world's two largest economies in a damaging trade war.
The two were meeting for dinner in Buenos Aires, just before Trump was due to board Air Force One for Washington after attending the summit of G20 nations.
Trump expressed optimism that "we will probably end up ending up getting something that will be good for China and the United States."
Trump said he also plans to ask Xi about synthetic opioid fentanyl being sent from China to the United States being added to a "restricted category" of drugs.
Air Force One will be sent to Houston to retrieve the casket of President H.W. Bush, who died Saturday, and bring it to Washington, Trump added before sitting down for dinner with Xi.
