Trump and Xi Meet in Washington to Manage US-China Tensions Amid Trade and Tech Disputes

Trump and Xi Meet in Washington to Manage US-China Tensions Amid Trade and Tech DisputesPreviousNext

Chinese President Xi Jinping visited Washington for a three-day state visit, marking his first in over a decade, to meet US President Donald Trump. The summit focused on managing tensions amid ongoing disputes over trade, tariffs, rare earth minerals, artificial intelligence, Taiwan, and Iran. While Trump hosted a lavish state dinner with prominent US tech executives, Xi did not bring a comparable Chinese business delegation. Both sides aimed to extend the fragile trade truce expiring in November, with limited expectations for major breakthroughs but a shared interest in stabilizing bilateral relations.
