Xi: Tone down rhetoric on war

Trump also told both sides must resolve issue via dialogue

The phone talk between President Xi Jinping and US President Donald Trump on Saturday has shown that the world's two largest economies have a common will to denuclearize the Korean Peninsula, analysts said.

The concerned parties should avoid remarks and actions that could escalate tensions on the peninsula, Xi told Trump, adding China is ready to work with the United States to appropriately resolve the issue.
