Xi Jinping's US state visit in 11 years: What Trump and China's leader will discuss
Xi’s visit will be his first to the White House since 2015, when he met then-President Barack Obama. Trump is preparing an unusually high-profile welcome, including personally greeting Xi at Joint Base Andrews when he arrives on Wednesday (September 23).
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.
