China’s Leader Xi Seeks to Extend Truce with Trump During U.S. Summit

Chinese leader Xi intends to secure a tactical trade truce during his summit with Trump to stabilize a fragile domestic economy. While extending the trade truce remains the most urgent objective, the discussions are expected to encompass other critical geopolitical and technical issues. Specifically, Xi and Trump will likely address the status of Taiwan, relations with Iran, and the development of AI, navigating a political landscape where the American president is constrained by war and internal politics.
