Days before winning his second presidential term, Donald Trump made a bold promise: if he returned to the White House, he would free a pugnacious, self-made billionaire from a Hong Kong prison.

U.S. President Donald Trump on Thursday said he would see what he could do to help "save" detained Hong Kong media tycoon Jimmy Lai, even though Chinese President Xi Jinping would not be "thrilled."

President Donald Trump said he’s raised the case of former Hong Kong media mogul Jimmy Lai with China, underscoring the wide-ranging nature of trade negotiations with Beijing.

Trump is betting a face-to-face meeting with Putin on Aug. 15 can help generate the breakthrough that has proven elusive in the peace talks.
