The invitation signals prolonged U.S.-China trade negotiations, with no immediate deals announced after the Beijing summit.
U.S. President Donald Trump invited Chinese President Xi Jinping to the White House on September 24, extending trade discussions beyond this week’s Beijing summit. The invitation was announced during a state dinner, though China has not confirmed Xi’s attendance.
The two leaders agreed to a framework of “strategic stability” for the next three years, according to state media. Analysts noted that many potential deals remain unresolved, with further negotiations likely at upcoming global forums.
Markets await clarity on whether key trade issues will be addressed before the September meeting or deferred to later summits.
