Beijing (CNN)Chinese President Xi Jinping called for restraint during a phone call Saturday with President Donald Trump, following a dramatic exchange of threats between the US President and North Korea.

Xi made clear in the call he was asking both sides to scale down the rhetoric and stressed the importance of diplomacy, China's Foreign Ministry said in a statement.

"At present, relevant parties should exercise restraint and avoid words and actions that would escalate tensions on the Korean Peninsula," Xi said, according to the statement.

Xi should worry about his own affairs, fighting over a meaningless border with India.

Cool. The president of china is the newest liberal hero. Does he rank in front of or behind lena dunham? It's a trick question.it's misogyny to rank dunham behind him.

i agree but the problem is that China has allowed NK to develop nukes, which are the diplomatic trump card

actual, bilateral diplomacy is not possible anymore. the only thing that the US can do is give in to NK demands. we receive nothing in exchange. that's not diplomacy, that's blackmail/terrorism

*ETA: i'm not saying we have to have a violent conclusion to this drama, but "diplomacy" is not the proper description

This shite between the US and DPRK is his business. War in North Korea would send millions of refugees over the Chinese border.

I do think Trump needs to tone it down unless he's ready to act. If he's always talking just like Kim Jong Un, then nobody will know when he's being serious or just doing more shite talking.

I don't take Kim Jong Un seriously because he's always saying this crap. People will start seeing Trump in the same way if he's always talking crap but not doing anything.

Xi realizes that tough rhetoric by NK and Trump leads to Trump redefining trade terms between the US and China. The cat is already out of the bag and the US will tighten the economic screws on Big Panda. In return Big Panda will force the Norks to give up Nukes.

Considering his country is the prime reason this wound (NK's nuclear capability) has been allowed to fester i'd say this is a foolish statement.

Agreed, and I wish he would make it more his business and have the entire Kim family killed.

I hope so. That is Trump's default setting. It is about time people starting recognizing that. My fear is that people already believe the lies that he repeats.

Like that he "upgraded our nuclear arsenal". Among the other lies that he says and people just believe.
