President Donald Trump’s meeting with Chinese President Xi Jinping in Beijing is an effort to promote stability in relations between the two countries.
The discussions are expected to include trade, technology, and Iran. Analysts say a likely outcome could be maintaining the current tariff truce while seeking assurances from Beijing on exports of rare-earth minerals, which are critical to global manufacturing and technology supply chains.
The meeting comes amid continuing tensions between the United States and China over trade policy, technology competition, and broader geopolitical disputes.
