Xi Jinping arrives in US, greeted by Trump

aftonbladet.se (Swedish) —

Chinese President Xi Jinping has landed in the US and is being received by President Donald Trump and First Lady Melania Trump, marking an unusually welcoming gesture from the American president. Trump previously received a lower-level welcome during his May visit to Beijing, where China's vice president met him at the airport. Trump has said he will discuss "almost everything" with Xi, with topics ranging from the unresolved trade war and Iran sanctions to Taiwan military tensions. Artificial intelligence appears set to dominate the summit, as the US and China compete for leadership in AI development, which has strained relations between the two superpowers.
