The G-2: Takeaways from Trump's Trip to Beijing
President Trump visited Beijing and claimed agreements for $17 billion in annual agricultural purchases and 200 Boeing aircraft sales, though China did not directly confirm these deals. Xi Jinping used the summit to position China as a co-equal global power with the U.S., referred to as "the G-2." The visit left unresolved critical issues including China's role in Iran and U.S. support for Taiwan.
