Chinese President Xi Jinping will hold talks with visiting US President Donald Trump in Beijing on Thursday morning (May 14), marking their second face-to-face meeting since their meeting in Busan in October last year.
Ahead of the talks at the East Hall of the Great Hall of the People, name plates for members of the US delegation were already in place, revealing the senior American officials attending the meeting.
The US representatives participating in the talks included Secretary of State Marco Rubio, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, US Trade Representative Jamieson Greer, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller.
The talks were held in the East Hall of the Great Hall of the People, a venue traditionally used by Chinese leaders to receive foreign guests and host high-level meetings.
The East Hall has witnessed several major historical moments, including the return of Hong Kong and Macao to the motherland, the historic handshake between Deng Xiaoping and Mikhail Gorbachev, as well as China's accession to the World Trade Organization.
