President Donald Trump asked Chinese President Xi Jinping to stop Chinese support for Iran during talks in Washington, according to Axios and other reports. Trump told Xi that any Chinese help for Iran was “unacceptable,” The Guardian reported.
CNN reported that intelligence from Chinese groups was helping Iran target U.S. sites with increasing effectiveness.
Trump greeted Xi at the airport, praised the relationship between the two countries and said the leaders had “never gotten along better.” The meeting also covered trade and artificial intelligence.
Taiwan, another central source of tension, was discussed privately but was not mentioned publicly by either leader during their official appearances, Deutsche Welle reported. The Guardian said Xi urged Washington to maintain what Beijing called the “correct position” of opposing Taiwanese independence.
A two-month extension of the U.S.-China trade truce was announced as Xi arrived. China also announced that two giant pandas, Ping Ping and Fu Shuang, would be sent to Atlanta’s zoo.
