By Rhyter Times Desk · 2h ago
United States President Donald Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping are scheduled to hold a summit, with trade relations and artificial intelligence expected to feature prominently on their agenda, according to reporting from Al Jazeera and The Guardian.
According to The Guardian, the meeting is set to take place in the United States this week, marking Xi's first state visit to the country in more than ten years, following his 2015 visit hosted by former President Barack Obama. Al Jazeera notes that this encounter represents the third face-to-face meeting between the two leaders within a single year.
While both outlets report that trade ties and technology safety concerning AI will be addressed, they point to different additional matters. Al Jazeera reports that Iran is expected to be on the agenda, whereas The Guardian lists Taiwan as a relevant topic and notes that the leaders may bypass talks regarding the climate emergency.
