"Economic issues are expected to dominate the face-to-face talks, including discussions on trade imbalances, transactions, and investments; Trump and Xi will most likely address the thorny issue of the war in the Middle East; and Trump already said on Monday that he also plans to broach what may be China's most existential issue Taiwan raising some alarm on the self-governed island that Beijing considers an inalienable part of its territory."
Trump lands in Beijing for a summit with Xi Jinping, with heavy security and an elaborate reception around cordoned-off hotels. The visit follows years of U.S.-China tensions and is the first time in nearly a decade that a leader of the world’s largest economy has visited the second largest. The leaders aim to assess the balance of power after 2025 tariff escalation and a fragile trade pause reached last October in Busan. Xi receives Trump Thursday morning at the Great Hall of the People. Talks are expected to center on trade imbalances, transactions, and investments, while also addressing the Middle East and Taiwan, which Beijing considers part of its territory.
