US President Donald Trump hosts Chinese leader Xi Jinping in Washington

US President Donald Trump has hosted Chinese leader Xi Jinping in Washington for a three-day state visit, marking Xi's first official trip to the United States in over a decade.

According to official diplomatic statements, the bilateral talks at the White House focused on key global security challenges, including the war in Ukraine, tensions on the Korean Peninsula, and conflict in the Middle East. Ukrainian leadership had previously requested Washington to use the summit to encourage Beijing to press Moscow toward de-escalation.

In an unusual diplomatic gesture, Trump personally met the Chinese president at the aircraft stairs upon his arrival. The summit highlights ongoing strategic negotiations between Washington and Beijing as both nations address international security concerns alongside economic relations.
