Overview
- Trump and Xi met for a second day in Beijing on Friday at Zhongnanhai, where Trump praised the visit and claimed China will buy 200 Boeing jets.
- U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer said both sides made progress on sales of farm goods, beef and energy, and plan to identify about $30 billion in low‑risk goods for tariff relief, with the trade truce’s extension still undecided.
- Xi warned that mishandling Taiwan could lead to conflict, while the White House readout skipped the topic and U.S. officials said Washington’s Taiwan policy remains unchanged.
- Trump said Xi offered help to end the Iran war and would not provide military equipment to Tehran, and both leaders agreed the Strait of Hormuz must stay open for energy shipments.
- Key issues remain unresolved, including advanced chip exports and full confirmation from Beijing of several purchase claims, and U.S. officials said Trump also raised the case of jailed Hong Kong publisher Jimmy Lai.
