Chinese President Xi Jinping called for sustained dialogue, military crisis communications and broader cooperation with the United States as President Donald Trump welcomed him to Washington for a state visit.

At the opening of their White House meeting, Xi said the countries should “coexist in peace” and could avoid the “Thucydides trap,” a term describing conflict between a rising power and an established one. He proposed regular dialogue between the two militaries and invited 100,000 young Americans to participate in student exchanges with China.

Trump said the leaders would discuss security, technology and artificial intelligence. He cited work toward greater access to Chinese markets for American farmers and ranchers and described his relationship with Xi as a “truly great friendship.” The visit also included a White House state dinner.

Iran was another point of tension. The Telegraph reported that Trump asked Xi to stop helping Iran. Republican senators, meanwhile, criticized the ceremonial welcome for Xi after lawmakers received a closed-door briefing on what The Hill described as deepening military cooperation between China and Iran. Senators also urged Trump to secure concrete Chinese concessions on agricultural trade.

Hundreds of demonstrators gathered during Xi’s visit to protest China’s occupation of Tibet, according to WUSA9. The talks took place amid rising tensions over artificial intelligence, trade and Taiwan.
