習近平於當地時間23日抵達華盛頓進行國是訪問,這是他時隔11年再度對美國進行國是訪問1。川普親自接機並舉行高規格歡迎儀式2,兩國元首預計24日上午舉行會談1。
在此次會談前夕,外界對中國追加採購波音飛機的預期正在降溫1。波音自2017年起被排除在中國飛機訂單之外,直至5月中國才同意向波音購買200架飛機1。儘管川普曾在5月表示中國採購飛機數量可能增至多達750架1,但美國貿易代表葛里爾目前表示約140架訂單進展良好,另外10架正在擬定中1。波音已從期望中國追加數百架訂單,轉向致力落實這份200架飛機協議1。
雙方在此次會晤中關注的焦點有限。美國半導體出口管制等最有利籌碼沒有列入議程2,雙方都不打算在先進科技、人工智慧主導權等核心爭議上作出太多讓步2。美國白宮高級官員稱,川普希望在11月期中選舉前保持美中關係穩定2。前美國資深外交官康達表示,「雙方似乎都把表面文章置於優先位置,甚至高於實質內容」2。雙方推動的貿易合作主要聚焦非敏感商品,中方以消費品及低技術產品為主,美方包括能源與農產品2。

Expectations for expanded Boeing aircraft purchases by China have diminished ahead of the summit.1 According to Reuters reporting, Boeing has shifted from hoping for hundreds of additional aircraft orders to focusing on implementing a 200-aircraft agreement reached in May.1 U.S. Trade Representative Grier indicated that approximately 140 of those orders are progressing well, with another 10 aircraft under negotiation.1 In May, Trump had suggested the Chinese purchase could potentially reach as many as 750 aircraft,1 and projections indicate China will order approximately 9,000 new aircraft by 2045.1 Boeing had been excluded from Chinese aircraft orders since 2017.1
While both nations are emphasizing the diplomatic protocols and ceremonial aspects of this summit, substantive achievements appear limited.2 Neither side intends to make significant concessions on core disputes such as advanced technology and artificial intelligence dominance.2 The agenda does not include advanced semiconductor export controls, which represent the United States' most valuable negotiating tool.2 Both countries are instead promoting non-sensitive goods trade, with China focusing on consumer goods and low-technology products while the United States emphasizes energy and agricultural products.2 A senior White House official stated that Trump aims to maintain stable U.S.-China relations before the November midterm elections.2 Former senior U.S. diplomat Condoleezza Rice remarked: "Both sides seem to be prioritizing ceremony even over substance."2
