President Trump received Chinese President Xi Jinping with full honors at the White House on Thursday, stating that China also opposes barriers to artificial intelligence development. The two leaders began discussions amid a two-month trade truce. The visit featured a military parade, 21-gun salute, and Air Force flyover. Trump said AI "superintelligence" would be a major discussion topic, adding that China shares his position. Observers expect no significant outcomes from the talks. The trade truce freezes tariffs until January 10, following threats from Trump and Chinese retaliation. China seeks stability amid economic pressures, while Trump wants Chinese neutrality before midterm elections. Xi's last White House visit was in 2015.
