CNBC TV18 PUTRAJAYA, MALAYSIA – China's President Xi Jinping and Malaysian Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim hold a bilateral meeting amid Xi's Southeast Asia tour.
Malaysian Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim welcomes visiting Chinese President Xi Jinping for bilateral talks, Memorandum of Understanding, and a dinner.
China's President Xi Jinping called for support for the international system centred around the United Nations, trade and the rule of law as he continued on a Southeast Asian tour amid a sharp deterioration in China-U.S. relations.
Xi is in Malaysia as part of a three-nation Southeast Asian trip that includes Vietnam and Cambodia, to consolidate ties with some of China's closest neighbours as trade tensions with the United States escalate.
"We must uphold the multilateral trading system, keep global industrial and supply chains stable, and maintain an international environment of openness and cooperation," Xi said.
Xi's comments come after U.S. President Donald Trump, who took office in January, shocked markets by imposing sweeping tariffs on countries across the world.
While some of the tariffs have since been delayed, Beijing faces 145% duties.
