O Chinese President Xi Jinping is due to participate in December at the G20 summit, organised by the American counterpart Donald Trump in a golf club outside Miami, the State Department announced today.
Xi Jinping's visit was addressed in a telephone conversation on Wednesday between US Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi.
According to a statement from the State Department, the two leaders discussed Xi Jinping’s “next visit” to Florida, where the meeting of leaders of the world’s largest industrialised and emerging economies (G20) will take place. The rotating presidency of the bloc is currently held by the United States.
Despite the American announcement, the Chinese authorities have not officially confirmed the President's participation in the summit.
According to Chinese diplomacy, Wang Yi warned the United States that stabilizing bilateral ties “was not easy” and called for the strengthening of dialogue, in the same conversation with the American counterpart, Marco Rubio.
The telephone conversation was “positive and constructive”, according to a statement released by the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs, which reported that the two representatives exchanged in-depth views on bilateral links and contacts between their leaders.
Wang also highlighted that the visit of Chinese President Xi Jinping to the United States in September was “successful” and provided the two Heads of State with a “clearer strategic orientation” for bilateral relations.
The President of the United States recently said that he must meet Xi Jinping and Russian leader Vladimir Putin at a summit in China, in reference to the summit of the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation Forum (APEC), which will take place in Shenzhen on 18 and 19 November.
