Trump travels to China for summit with Xi Jinping, accompanied by over a dozen US business executives

President Donald Trump is traveling to Beijing this week to meet with Chinese President Xi Jinping amid ongoing trade and technology tensions between the two countries. More than a dozen prominent US executives, including Apple's Tim Cook, Tesla's Elon Musk, BlackRock's Larry Fink, and Nvidia's Jensen Huang, have been invited to join the official delegation. The trip also raises questions about US policy toward Taiwan, with a bipartisan group of senators urging Trump to announce a $14 billion arms sale to Taiwan before the summit.
