"We made a lot of progress, just in terms of relationship. We actually sold USD300 billion worth of equipment and other things. That number is going to be quadrupled very quickly. So that's over a trillion dollars' worth of stuff," Mr. Trump told reporters.

President Trump said it was a great trip. It was also really good, in terms of Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (DPRK) and getting everybody together. Their acts are all together. China has been excellent. Japan and the Republic of Korea (RoK) have been excellent. I think that's a very important part of the trip.

Donald Trump tweeted praise for his “long and successful” trip to Asia, after wrapping up his tour of the region.

“Our great country is respected again in Asia,” he wrote. “You will see the fruits of our long but successful trip for many years to come!”

The US President has just finished a 12-day trip through Japan, RoK, China, Vietnam and the Philippines, which included one-on-one meetings with leaders with a focus on trade./.
