U.S. President Donald Trump landed in Beijing on 13 May 2026 for a two‑day summit with President Xi Jinping, the first visit by a sitting U.S. leader to China in nearly a decade. Accompanying him were senior business figures such as Nvidia’s Jensen Huang, Elon Musk, Apple’s Tim Cook, BlackRock’s Larry Fink and executives from Boeing, Visa, Goldman Sachs and Citi, underscoring the trip’s focus on trade, technology and semiconductor policy. The agenda includes discussions on reviving a trade truce, securing market access for American firms, resolving export‑control disputes over AI chips, and addressing broader geopolitical issues like the Iran conflict, the Strait of Hormuz crisis, and U.S. arms sales to Taiwan. Parallel talks by Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent with Chinese Vice Premier He Lifeng aim to preserve the October 2025 tariff‑pause agreement, while Chinese officials have signaled a cautious willingness to expand cooperation and manage differences. The summit occurs amid economic pressures on both sides—U.S. inflation and political constraints on Trump, and China’s weak domestic demand—adding urgency to securing visible outcomes.
