Xi Jinping lands in Washington as Trump breaks protocol with rare airport welcome for China leader | WATCH

Chinese President Xi Jinping arrived in Washington on Wednesday for a three-day state visit, setting the stage for high-level talks with US President Donald Trump on trade, artificial intelligence, critical minerals, Taiwan and other sensitive issues. The visit, which runs from September 23 to 25, has drawn particular attention even before the formal White House meeting because Trump personally travelled to Joint Base Andrews to receive Xi and his wife Peng Liyuan. Trump and First Lady Melania Trump were present at the Maryland military base when Xi’s aircraft arrived. The US President greeted the Chinese leader and Peng Liyuan on the tarmac, marking an uncommon protocol gesture for a visiting foreign leader. The White House had announced ahead of the visit that Trump would personally welcome Xi at Joint Base Andrews on Wednesday, followed by a formal state arrival ceremony at the White House on Thursday.
