China has agreed to order 200 Boeing jets, U.S. President Donald Trump told Fox News Channel’s Sean Hannity in an excerpt of an interview that was released on Thursday.
U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent had earlier said he expected an announcement about a large Boeing order during Trump’s visit to Beijing, during which he held talks with Chinese leader Xi Jinping.
“One thing he agreed to today, he’s going to order 200 jets … Boeing wanted 150, they got 200,” Fox News cited Trump as saying.
