US President Donald Trump received Chinese President Xi Jinping in Washington on Thursday. The meeting was accompanied by a lavish state banquet at the White House, during which both leaders stressed good relations, shared interests and strategic stability between the United States and China. Le Monde ↗
Trump spoke of historically exceptional relations between the two countries despite several contentious issues. In preparing the banquet, the host sought to create a festive atmosphere. Sparkling wine dating from the administration of President Richard Nixon was served at the event, and prominent guests attended. Tagesspiegel ↗
Trump gave the Chinese president a statue of a bald eagle, the national symbol of the United States and a native bird of North America. The gift was meant to underline the friendly character of the meeting. BBC News ↗
Xi Jinping said that he had reached an agreement with Trump on several issues. However, he did not disclose the details of these agreements. Despite the publicly declared cooperation, the talks brought no significant shift in the key disputes between Washington and Beijing. According to the description of the meeting, the Chinese president appeared more reserved than his American counterpart. Onet Wiadomosci ↗
Journalists were not given access to the state banquet, so the public received only limited information about how the event went. The meeting thus produced mainly symbolic gestures of conciliation and an effort by both sides to emphasize the stability of the relationship, while concrete results remained unclear. Die Zeit ↗
