Xi lands in US, Trump rolls out red carpet

dn.se (Swedish) —

Chinese President Xi Jinping has landed in the US, where President Donald Trump and First Lady Melania Trump are personally receiving him at Joint Base Andrews, an unusually welcoming gesture. Trump has said he will discuss "almost everything" with Xi. The summit occurs amid tensions over the trade war and the threat of military confrontation regarding Taiwan. Trump's reception contrasts with his May visit to Beijing, where he was greeted only by China's vice president. Among the strained issues, artificial intelligence appears set to take center stage at the meeting, as the US and China compete to lead in AI development and speed.
