Please log in or create an account below. On Friday, the final day of his Beijing trip, US President Donald Trump will again meet his Chinese counterpart Xi Jinping, this time over tea and a working lunch. The two leaders are expected to continue discussions on critical bilateral and global issues, with Xi framing the talks around “constructive strategic stability” – a phrase he used during Thursday’s formal session to signal consensus with Trump. Trump arrived in the Chinese capital on Wednesday evening and was officially welcomed by Xi on Thursday morning with a full honour guard ceremony at the Great Hall of the People. The leaders then held two hours of formal talks before visiting the Temple of Heaven, a Ming‑era cultural site with more than 600 years of history, and attending a lavish state banquet. Trump is scheduled to leave Beijing later in the day.
