US President Donald Trump holds White House talks with Chinese leader Xi Jinping

Chinese President Xi Jinping has wrapped up a three-day state visit to the United States, marking his first state visit to the nation in over a decade. US President Donald Trump extended a rare diplomatic gesture by greeting Xi directly on the airport tarmac upon his arrival.

During bilateral discussions at the White House, the two leaders addressed key global security matters, including the war in Ukraine, Middle East instability, and security dynamics on the Korean Peninsula. The summit coincided with appeals from Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, who requested that Washington urge Beijing to exert influence over Moscow toward military de-escalation. Observers noted Beijing might leverage its position regarding Russia to seek strategic or economic trade-offs from Washington.
