The meeting will be held at Trump’s Mar-a-Lago retreat in Florida. The maiden meeting between Trump and Xi comes at a critical time when several pressing issues like North Korea, the South China Sea dispute and talks of a trade war are putting considerable strain on the bilateral relationship between both nations.
Responding to the question on trade war, Chinese foreign ministry spokesperson Lu Kang urged both sides to work together « to make the cake of mutual interest bigger and not simply seek fairer distribution. »
Lu declined to give details about the highly-anticipated meeting.
