WASHINGTON, United States: The US military honour guard has practiced, and the new White House helipad is ready. Will Xi Jinping and Donald Trump achieve liftoff at their summit next week? Warnings of an AI apocalypse hang heavy over the Chinese president’s first talks at the White House with his US counterpart, as both countries compete for technological supremacy.
Trump’s Iran war also throws a long shadow, as China strives to avoid US penalties on countries trading with Tehran, despite claims that Beijing provided Tehran with intelligence for an attack on US troops. A trade war is an even greater risk, and the world’s two largest economies are still working to reduce the effects of Trump’s worldwide tariffs. The possibility of war over Taiwan looms huge as well.
Behind it all is the desire to manage tensions between a superpower eager to maintain its position at the top and a swiftly developing adversary anxious to make the twenty-first century a Chinese one. I’ll be discussing almost everything with him,” Trump told reporters on Air Force One on Sunday, prior to their meeting on September 24.
