Summary
In Beijing, China, thousands of people lined the streets hoping to catch a glimpse of President Trump as he arrived in China for his first visit in nearly a decade, setting the stage for a summit with Chinese President Xi Jinping. Trump invited 17 of the world's biggest financial leaders to join him on the trip, including Tesla's Elon Musk, Apple's Tim Cook, and Nvidia's Jensen Huang, with the White House pushing for new deals that could boost American agriculture and aircraft sales and establish a board of trade to help avoid another full-scale tariff war. Meanwhile, the former mayor of Arcadia, California, Eileen Wang, will plead guilty to acting as an illegal foreign agent of the Chinese government, a charge that has a maximum sentence of 10 years in prison.
