🇨🇳🇺🇸 China and the U.S. pave the way for a new meeting between Xi and Trump

Beijing and Washington are accelerating preparations for Xi Jinping’s visit to the U.S., expected in September. In a meeting with the U.S. ambassador David Perdue, China’s foreign minister Wang Yi called for “clearing obstacles and overcoming barriers” and for focusing on a positive agenda. Perdue himself described the talks as part of the preparation for Xi’s reciprocal visit to Washington.

At the same time, discussions are under way about the participation of major Chinese business leaders in the trip. Extending the previously reached trade ceasefire is described by sources as almost unavoidable. Beijing and Washington are obviously trying to stabilize relations at least temporarily—despite tariffs, technology restrictions, and mutual sanctions.

If the two biggest economies in the world agree, Europe will only be left to watch exactly what they manage to agree on without Europe.
