BEIJING, May 15 (Reuters) - U.S. President Donald Trump said on Friday he discussed Iran with Chinese President Xi Jinping and that they do not want Iran to have nuclear weapons and "want the straits open".
The two leaders met at the walled-off Zhongnanhai complex in Beijing as Trump wraps up his state visit to China.
"We’ve settled a lot of different problems that other people wouldn’t have been able to solve," Trump said.
