Xi Jinping arrives in US, greeted by Trump at Joint Base Andrews

gp.se (Swedish) —

Chinese President Xi Jinping has landed in the US and was personally received by President Donald Trump and First Lady Melania Trump at Joint Base Andrews, an unusually welcoming gesture for a US president. Trump, who was greeted only by China's vice president during his May visit to Beijing, said he will discuss "almost everything" with Xi. Key issues include the unresolved trade war, Iran-related sanctions concerns, and the threat of military confrontation over Taiwan. Artificial intelligence is expected to dominate the summit, as the US and China compete to lead in AI development, though other strained aspects of the bilateral relationship remain on the agenda.
