Chinese President Xi Jinping is set to visit the White House this week for a summit with U.S. President Donald Trump. In preparation, U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent met with Chinese Vice Premier He Lifeng in New York on Sunday, according to multiple reports. The talks focused on trade and artificial intelligence (AI), with Bessent describing the engagement as 'very successful.'
The discussions come as concerns over AI safety and trade tensions grow, with both sides exploring a dialogue mechanism to address these issues. The talks also aimed to ease trade tensions ahead of an expiring truce deal in November. The U.S. and China have been engaging in high-level discussions, with officials from both countries meeting in New York over the weekend.
As the Trump-Xi summit approaches, the focus remains on how both nations will address economic and technological challenges. Meanwhile, other global powers, such as the EU, are navigating their positions amid shifting U.S.-China dynamics.
