Trump's team wrongly refer to Chinese leader as the president of Taiwan
(MENAFN) The White House mistakenly referred to the Chinese leader Xi Jinping as the president of Taiwan just hours after Donald Trump spoke of his "wonderful relationship" with Mr Xi.
The US leader spent 90 minutes discussing trade and the nuclear threat from North Korea with Mr Xi at the G20 summit in Hamburg, Germany.
He struck a friendly chord with the Communist Party chief, telling him it was "an honour to have you as a friend" ahead of the highly anticipated meeting.
The mix-up was ridiculed by China experts, who pointed out that Taiwan"s leader Tsai Ing-wen is a democratically elected woman, and is considered a political rival of Mr Xi.
