"US President Donald Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping are set to discuss a range of topics, with three likely dominating the agenda. Trade: Tariffs are expected to be a major part of the agenda as the US and China engaged in a trade war last year after Trump placed tariffs on almost every nation. Taiwan: The US says it "does not support" Taiwanese independence. But China could see an opening in pressing the US to actively oppose it."
"Artificial intelligence: Trump and Xi are sure to discuss the future of artificial intelligence. China and the US held "candid, in-depth and constructive exchanges" in South Korea on resolving trade and economic issues and expanding cooperation, China's state-run Xinhua news agency reported.

Donald Trump arrived in Beijing for a high-stakes summit with Xi Jinping, with the visit scheduled to run from May 13 through May 15. Trump said he will ask Xi to “open up” China during their meeting. The agenda is expected to focus on trade, with tariffs likely to be central after a prior trade war involving broad US tariffs. Taiwan is also expected to dominate, as the US does not support Taiwanese independence while China may seek stronger US opposition. Artificial intelligence is expected to be discussed alongside these issues. Trump is accompanied by US business leaders.
