Trump Welcomes Xi Jinping for US-China Summit Amid Trade Truce
Chinese President Xi Jinping arrived in Washington for a state visit, his first in three years. U.S. President Donald Trump personally welcomed Xi and his wife at the airport, a rare gesture. The summit's agenda includes discussions on trade, Taiwan, and Artificial Intelligence. The U.S. announced that a truce in the trade dispute between the two countries has been extended for two months, referred to as the 'Basan agreement'. Experts suggest the summit highlights perceived hypocrisy in American trade policy.
