This marks the first visit by a U.S. president to China in nine years, since President Trump's first term in office in November 2017. The visit is drawing international attention as it takes place amid ongoing tensions between the U.S. and China over tariff disputes, the Taiwan issue, and the situation in the Middle East.

The official schedule will begin on the morning of May 14, with President Trump holding talks with President Xi at the Great Hall of the People. The two leaders' summit is taking place about six months after they last met in Busan during the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) summit in October of last year.

During the summit, the two presidents are expected to discuss a wide range of key issues, including trade and tariff matters, as well as the situations involving Taiwan and Iran. Citing U.S. officials, Bloomberg also reported that the talks will include discussions on China's revenue provided to Iran and potential arms exports.

In addition, the two countries plan to coordinate ways to establish organizations such as a trade commission and to finalize investments in sectors such as agriculture, energy, and aerospace. Bloomberg added that the issue of artificial intelligence (AI) has also attracted attention after Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang boarded Air Force One at the last minute in Alaska.

After the summit, President Trump and President Xi are scheduled to tour the Temple of Heaven in Beijing, followed by a state dinner at the Great Hall of the People in the evening. On the final day of the visit, May 15, the two leaders will continue additional discussions over a small tea gathering and a luncheon. President Trump will then conclude his three-day visit to China and return to the United States.
