"I had a very, very good conversation yesterday, with the President of China. It was a very, very warm conversation. I think we are on the process of getting along very well and I think that we'll also be very much of a benefit to Japan," Trump told reporters at a joint news conference with the visiting Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe.
"I believe that, that will all work out very well for everybody, China, Japan, the US and everybody in the region," he said.
Responding to a question on Chinese currency devaluations, Trump said he had been complaining about that for a long time.
"That's the only way that you can fairly compete in trade and other things. We will be on that field and we will all be working very hard to do great for our country. But it has to be fair and we will make it fair," Trump said.
Trump said the US is going to be an even bigger player than it is right now by a lot when it comes to trade.
The White House is working with Congress on this issue, he said.
"We're also working very much, and this has a lot to do with business, on health care, where we can get great health care for our country at a much reduced price both to the people receiving the health care," he said, adding that Obamacare was a total and complete disaster.
