A annual APEC meeting takes place in Shenzhen, China, in November, and the G20 summit takes place in December in Miami, United States.
Donald Trump made this statement on the social networks coinciding with the return of his Chinese counterpart Xi Jinping to China, which held between last Wednesday and today his first state visit to the United States, and the first also of a Chinese head of state in more than ten years.
“President Xi and Mrs Peng have just left Washington DC for China. It was a meeting marked by friendship, strength and success, both for China and the United States,” wrote the Republican on his social network Truth Social, also referring to the first lady of the Asian country, Peng Liyuan.
“ We'll meet again in November, China, and then at the G20 summit in December, in Miami, Florida. Much has been achieved and even more will be achieved. I look forward to our next meeting!"
Xi's recent visit to the US, following Trump's trip to Beijing last May, took place in the context of growing trade tensions, the war in Iran, the future of Taiwan and the race for artificial intelligence.
However, the meeting in Washington did not result in important agreements, beyond an extension until January of the tariff truce between the two powers, announced shortly before the Chinese leader arrived in the US capital.
