Through the summit, the United States and China agreed to prevent an escalation of their trade conflict and to maintain direct communication between the leaders. President Xi asked President Trump to uphold a position against 'Taiwan independence.' President Xi also invited President Trump to the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) summit to be held in Shenzhen, China in November.


President Trump personally greeted President Xi at the airport and held an official welcoming ceremony at the White House that featured fighter jets, providing an exceptional level of protocol throughout President Xi's visit to the United States.



Chinese state media assessed that this visit marks a new starting point for China-U.S. relations and called for both countries to translate the vision of a 'constructive strategic and stable relationship' from concept into action.
