Following his meeting with Chinese President Xi Jinping, US President Donald Trump claimed in an interview that China has agreed to purchase American oil and will send ships to states like Texas, Louisiana, and Alaska. However, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Guo Jiakun did not directly confirm this statement, stating only that China is willing to work with all parties to maintain global energy security and supply chain stability. The geopolitical context includes previous trade tensions and recent oil price spikes due to conflicts in the Middle East.
