US President Donald Trump will make an official visit to China from May 13-15 at the invitation of Chinese leader Xi Jinping. This visit marks Trump's first official visit to China in 9 years.
The visit aims to discuss important issues such as trade, energy, strategic stability, Iran, and Taiwan. The visit, initially planned for March-April, was postponed in February due to the war with Iran.
According to the White House schedule, Trump will arrive in Beijing on May 13, and the leaders will meet on the morning of May 14. The Taiwan issue stands out as a particularly sensitive agenda item; China defines Taiwan as the "first red line." The US side has not made a clear statement about the future of arms supplies to Taiwan.
According to US media, agreements on trade, energy, strategic weapons, artificial intelligence, and rare earth metals will also be on the table. The possibility of China increasing energy purchases from the US and extending existing agreements is also being considered.
China's Ministry of Foreign Affairs announced that bilateral and global issues will be discussed in depth during the visit, with a particular focus on economic cooperation. The results and details of the visit will be clarified through official statements from the parties involved.
