Xi Jinping's US state visit in 11 years: What Trump and China's leader will discuss

Chinese President Xi Jinping is scheduled to visit the United States for his first state trip in over a decade, meeting with President Donald Trump at the White House on September 24. The visit marks a rare opportunity for the two leaders to address a range of pressing issues, from trade and tariffs to artificial intelligence and Taiwan.

As Washington and Beijing grapple with maintaining a fragile trade truce while competing for technological and geopolitical dominance, the two leaders are expected to discuss a broad array of topics, including trade negotiations, AI safety, the Iran conflict, rare earths, fentanyl precursor chemicals, and agricultural trade. The high-profile welcome Trump is preparing for Xi, which includes a personal greeting at Joint Base Andrews, underscores the importance of the visit to both sides.
