Chinese president Xi Jinping will pay a state visit to the United States in the autumn at the invitation of US president Donald Trump, China’s top diplomat Wang Yi said on Friday.
Wang made the announcement while briefing reporters on the just-concluded meeting between Xi and Trump in Beijing. He called on both sides to work together to make thorough preparations for future interactions and exchanges between the two leaders, foster a favourable atmosphere and build up more outcomes.
Trump concluded a two-day visit to China on Thursday, during which he held talks with Xi and attended a series of official events in Beijing. During the visit, Trump said he had invited Xi to make a reciprocal visit to the White House on September 24, and the White House described the meeting between the two leaders as “good,” saying they discussed ways to enhance economic cooperation.
