Chinese President Xi Jinping, on a high-profile tour of Southeast Asia, is making the case for free trade and promoting his country as a source of ‘stability and certainty.’

Xi isn’t mentioning President Donald Trump by name but his message is clear: amid the turmoil Trump’s on-again, off-again tariffs are causing the global markets, investors should look to China as a safe bet.

During his stop in Vietnam, Xi – above left with Vietnamese President Luong Cuong on the right – said their two countries ‘have brought the world valuable stability and certainty’ in a ‘turbulent world.’

Trump, for his part, complained about the meeting, saying China and Vietnam were trying ‘to figure out how do we screw the United States of America.’
