Trump to visit China for high-stakes Xi Jinping meetingBloombergUS President Donald Trump plans to travel to China from March 31 to April 2 for a meeting with his counterpart Xi Jinping (習近平) as the two leaders look to navigate a trade relationship again plunged into uncertainty and navigate tensions around Taiwan. US President Donald Trump, left, and Chinese President Xi Jinping talk as they leave after a bilateral meeting at Gimhae International Airport, on the sidelines of the APEC summit, in Busan, South Korea, on Oct. 30 last year. “President Xi, he treated me so well, he gave me a display, I never saw so many soldiers all the same height, exactly the same height,” Trump said. Following months of talks, Trump and Xi reached a one-year agreement in October to lower duties and export restrictions. The December announcement drew swift condemnation from Beijing, though Xi stopped short of demanding Trump halt the sales altogether.
