Trump Confirms Two Additional Meetings With President Xi Before Year's End
Following a state visit to the U.S., President Trump announced that he and Chinese President Xi Jinping have scheduled two further meetings for later this year. The meetings are intended to continue diplomatic discussions between the two leaders.
President Donald Trump confirmed on Friday that he will hold two additional meetings with Chinese President Xi Jinping before the end of the year. The announcement follows the conclusion of President Xi’s three-day state visit to the United States, during which the two leaders engaged in high-level diplomatic talks.
Trump shared the news via a post on Truth Social shortly after President Xi and his wife, Madam Peng, departed Washington, D.C. According to the reports, one of these upcoming engagements is slated to occur in China this November, coinciding with the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) summit. While both outlets agree on the core fact that two meetings are planned, they differ slightly in their narrative focus. The Hill emphasizes the formal confirmation of the APEC summit location, whereas the Washington Examiner frames the announcement as a continuation of the momentum established during the recent state visit, highlighting the personal departure of the Chinese delegation.
