U.S. President Donald Trump departed Beijing following a final day meeting with Chinese President Xi Jinping. The leaders say they made progress in stabilizing U.S.-China relations, but deep differences remain after two days of meetings and meals. On Friday they walked the grounds of Zhongnanhai and had a working tea and lunch. During meetings and events Thursday the two discussed divisive issues such as the Iran war, trade, technology and Taiwan. China has shown little public interest in getting more involved in solving the war in Iran. Xi also suggested differences over Taiwan could put his country and the U.S. on the path toward conflict. Threats of each side imposing steep tariffs also still loom.
