US President Donald Trump will visit China from May 13 to May 15, marking the first visit by a sitting US president in nearly ten years. During this trip, he will engage in high-level discussions with Chinese President Xi Jinping, addressing a wide-ranging agenda that includes US arms transfers to Taiwan, China's rare earth export restrictions, and the ongoing Iran conflict. Trump's previous visit was postponed due to the Iran war, which has severely disrupted shipping through the Strait of Hormuz. Despite the tensions, Trump expressed confidence that Xi is interested in containing the crisis. He stated that he does not require Xi's assistance regarding Iran, asserting that the US will handle the situation independently. The discussions are also expected to touch on Taiwan, with the aim of preventing it from escalating into a new flashpoint in US-China relations. Additionally, Trump's threats to withdraw from NATO have further complicated relations with traditional allies, potentially reshaping global diplomatic dynamics.
