Trump Invites Chinese President Xi Jinping to January 20 Inauguration, Attendance Unlikely
Dec 12, 2024, 11:50 PM
President-elect Donald Trump has officially invited Chinese President Xi Jinping to his inauguration scheduled for January 20, 2025. The White House has stated that the decision on the invitation rests with Trump. While the invitation marks an unprecedented diplomatic gesture, it is reported that Xi is not expected to attend. Sources indicate that he may send a senior delegation in his place. Trump's invitation to Xi comes despite ongoing tensions between the U.S. and China, including Trump's previous promise to impose significant tariffs on Chinese imports. This move is seen as an effort by Trump to turn his inauguration into a global event by inviting various world leaders, including those from nations with which the U.S. has had strained relations.
