China has confirmed President Xi Jinping will make a state visit to the United States from Wednesday to Friday this week at the invitation of President Donald Trump, marking their second summit in 2026. The Chinese Foreign Ministry stated the goal is to defend a "constructive relationship of strategic stability" in bilateral and international affairs, promoting dialogue and cooperation while managing disputes amid ongoing tensions. This visit follows Trump's trip to Beijing in May and their October 2025 trade truce, though Chinese exports to the US rose 34.4% year-on-year in August, with experts expecting no major breakthroughs.
