President Donald Trump has expressed his intention to visit China within his first 100 days in office, according to reports from the Wall Street Journal. Trump's desire to travel to China aims to deepen ties with Chinese President Xi Jinping, which have been strained by the threat of imposing steeper tariffs on Chinese imports. However, officials from the Trump administration have clarified that no concrete plans for such a trip have been made yet. Trump's last visit to China was in 2017, and discussions have included the possibility of a meeting with Xi Jinping, potentially on U.S. soil.
