Chinese President Xi Jinping began a three-day visit to the United States, meeting President Donald Trump amid tensions over trade, technology, Taiwan and the Iran war. Xi’s visit comes just two weeks after his meeting with Prime Minister Narendra Modi at the BRICS summit in New Delhi, highlighting India’s growing strategic relevance in the US-China relationship. Washington and Beijing have also extended their trade truce by two months. Experts cited by India Today say China’s improving ties with India could influence its wider strategy toward the US, while New Delhi continues balancing relations with both major powers.
