A state banquet, selfies with Musk and Huang's noodle run: The spectacle of Trump's Beijing visit

The leaders agreed to a three-year framework as China signaled wider market access and the Trump administration said Beijing would buy more Boeing jets and U.S. goods.

  • On Thursday and Friday, U.S. President Donald Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping held a pageantry-filled summit in Beijing, marking the first visit by a sitting U.S. president to China in nearly a decade.
  • Aiming to put the bilateral relationship on a steadier footing for three years, the two sides agreed to a framework; China committed to purchase more Boeing aircraft, agricultural products, and American oil.
  • Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang joined the delegation after a last-minute invite, while viral footage showed Elon Musk interacting with Chinese business leaders, with the hashtag "Lei Jun and Musk photo together" drawing more than 20 million views on Weibo.
  • While Trump called Xi "my friend," the Chinese leader warned that mishandling differences over Taiwan could lead to "clashes and even conflicts," calling it "the most important issue" in their bilateral relationship.
  • Trump concluded the summit Friday with a private stroll through Zhongnanhai, where few foreign leaders have entered, and invited Xi and First Lady Peng Liyuan to visit the White House in September.
