BEIJING: US President Donald Trump and his Chinese counterpart Xi Jinping began on Thursday what Trump termed as the “biggest summit ever” to discuss a wide range of issues, including the war in Iran and bilateral trade frictions.
Trump, who arrived in Beijing last night to a rousing reception, told Xi in their first meeting on Thursday that he looks forward to a “big discussion” with him.
“There are those who say this is maybe the biggest summit ever,” Trump said in his opening remarks while having talks with Xi at the Great Hall of the People in Beijing.
