President Trump met with Chinese President Xi Jinping for a summit on the first day of his visit to China. The leaders discussed trade, security and diplomatic ties, aiming to manage tensions and explore areas of cooperation after a period of strained relations.
Reactions across Asia were mixed. Some governments and analysts welcomed the talks as a step toward regional stability, while others urged caution, saying that meaningful progress will depend on concrete follow-up agreements and implementation.
Separately, an appeals court heard arguments from law firms that have been targeted by President Trump in ongoing legal disputes. The hearings focused on the firms’ appeals of actions taken against them, and judges will decide whether to uphold or overturn the lower-court decisions.
