Former US President Donald Trump made an unexpected statement on May 11, 2026 regarding the future of US-China bilateral relations. In a brief remark, Trump asserted: “US-China relations will be better than ever.”
The statement comes amid years of turbulence between the two nations marked by disputes over trade, technology, and geopolitics. Analysts suggest Trump’s comment may signal a shift in the former president’s stance — he had initiated a trade war with China during his tenure.
No official response has yet come from Beijing or the White House. Nonetheless, the remark has quickly captured media and international observers’ attention, especially as Trump emerges as a leading candidate in the 2026 US presidential election.
