US President Donald Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping are meeting Thursday at the White House for talks covering trade irritants, artificial intelligence safeguards and the war in Iran.
The two leaders have a broad agenda. Trump wants China to use its influence with Iran, while Xi is seeking a halt to US arms sales to Taiwan.
Trade truce extended
A fragile trade truce had been set to expire in November, but the two countries agreed Wednesday to extend it for two months.
First state visit in over a decade
The meeting marks Xi’s first state visit to the US in more than a decade.
The talks are ongoing, with further details expected as the leaders continue their discussions.
