Washington, DC [US]: A White House official confirmed that US President Donald Trump will visit China from March 31 to April 2, a gesture that China sees as a win as the globe prepares to experience a shift in the global order.
Trump’s turbulent foreign policy has prompted China to welcome a number of world leaders, including British Prime Minister Keir Starmer and Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney.
These were longstanding US friends who have not paid trips to the country since the Covid-19 outbreak. However, the tables have turned with Trump’s insistence on acquiring Greenland, as well as his imposition of tariffs on the EU, which has pushed the group to increase its security budget.
And, in broader talks taking place at events such as the World Economic Forum in Davos, Western leaders are openly admitting that the US-backed post-1945 system is being overtaken – a viewpoint that is not entirely different from China’s.

Carney’s visit, the first by a Canadian prime minister since 2017, lowered strict tariffs on Chinese-made electric vehicles that Canada had placed in accordance with the US in exchange for a reduction in barriers to Canadian agricultural goods, according to CNN.

Separately, Beijing and the European Union reached an agreement last month to replace tariffs on Chinese EVs with agreements to sell at low costs, according to CNN.
Meetings between Chinese leader Xi Jinping and US President Donald Trump might be fruitful
As for the US-China relationship, US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent told Politico that it has reached a “very good equilibrium” where disagreements are less likely to escalate into full-scale economic conflict than they were the previous year. Up to four meetings between Chinese leader Xi Jinping and US President Donald Trump this year might be fruitful, according to Bessent.
“When the leaders are setting the tone for the overall relationship, if there are glitches, if there are hiccups, then they can jump on phone calls and de-escalate very quickly,” he stated to Politico.
