US President Trump travels to China

174

US President Donald Trump travels to China on Wednesday. He visits leader Xi Jinping in Beijing. The visit lasts 3 days. It is his first visit to China since 2017. Both men have met 6 times before.

There are many difficult topics. One topic is trade. The USA and China argue about customs. Trump wants new contracts. He wants to sell planes and soy beans. Artificial intelligence is also an important topic.

Another topic is politics. It is about Taiwan and Iran. China should help Iran less. The USA wants safety on the seas. Trump brings bosses of big firms. For example, he brings the boss of Apple.

There is trouble in the USA. A mayor from California spied for China. Eileen Wang admitted this in court. She made propaganda for the Chinese government. She can go to prison for 10 years.

The USA wants new military bases in Greenland. They talk about this with Denmark. The USA wants to watch Russia and China. Trump said before: The USA should own Greenland. That caused a lot of trouble.
