Summit in Washington: Grand reception, long list of conflicts: Xi visits Trump
Their reunion is supposed to be pompous again. But on many issues, US President Trump and Chinese President Xi are far apart.
Chinese President Xi Jinping has arrived in Washington for a visit, during which US President Donald Trump will host him with a military parade, state dinner, and meetings with top tech executives. The two leaders' relationship is strained, with tensions between the US and China on trade, technology, and security issues. A key topic of discussion is expected to be the trade truce agreed in October, which expires on November 10, with China seeking a longer extension and the US wanting to maintain pressure.
The visit also comes amid concerns about China's growing influence in the Arctic region and its relationship with Iran and Russia.
