President Donald Trump is only one day into his week-long Asia tour, and he’s already overseen Cambodia and Thailand sign a peace deal and secured several trade agreements. He’s even thrown in some fancy dance moves.
The White House posted on X Sunday morning that “The Kuala Lumpur Peace Accords have been SIGNED, marking a historic milestone in resolving border tensions between Thailand and Cambodia.”
While attending the 13th ASEAN-United States conference in Kuala Lumpur, Cambodia, Trump also secured trade deals with both Cambodia and Malaysia, with agreements in principle in place for Thailand and Vietnam as well, U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer confirmed on “Fox News Sunday.”
Expect more deal-making at Thursday’s highly-anticipated meeting between Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping in South Korea.
Trump will finalize the TikTok deal with China which involves the app’s China-based parent company relinquishing its control of TikTok in the U.S. to American buyers, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said Sunday.
“We reached a final deal on TikTok. We reached one in Madrid, and I believe that as of today [Sunday,] all the details are ironed out, and that will be for the two leaders to consummate that transaction on Thursday in Korea,” Bessent told CBS News’ “Face the Nation.”
“My remit was to get the Chinese to agree to approve the transaction, and I believe we successfully accomplished that over the past two days,” Bessent said.
Trump kicked off his Asian trip with a dance. Arriving in Malaysia Sunday after a 23-hour flight, the president promptly joined performers on the tarmac, with what the White House is calling the “TRUMP DANCE MALAYSIA VERSION.”
