Trump Grovels to ‘Great’ Chinese Leader in First Key Meeting in Beijing

President Donald Trump had nothing but effusive praise for Chinese President Xi Jinping at the opening of a major two-day summit.

Trump’s visit to China marks the first such visit by a sitting U.S. president since his last visit to China in 2017, and the first meeting between Trump and his Chinese counterpart since their meeting at the APEC summit in Busan, South Korea, in October.

Trump was greeted by Xi in Beijing with a welcome ceremony complete with a red carpet, a cannon salute, an honor guard, and children waving flags. The two leaders then posed for photos outside the Great Hall of the People before heading inside to begin talks.
