China’s Commerce Ministry confirms that China will purchase 200 Boeing commercial jets, following statements by U.S. President Donald Trump after the Trump–Xi summit in Beijing. Multiple outlets report this is China’s first major Boeing order in nearly a decade, and that it represents a significant Boeing sale to Beijing. The confirmation comes alongside references to further potential purchases mentioned by Trump. Some reports say Trump indicated the talks could lead to additional aircraft beyond the initial 200—figures cited include as many as 750—though the confirmed order remains 200 planes. Separately, the two sides also signal work toward extending the U.S.–China tariff truce agreed in October, according to China’s Commerce Ministry. Bloomberg also reports Trump discussing broader cooperation and additional negotiation signals, including matters beyond trade, but these are not described in the other sources provided. Overall, the reporting centers on the confirmed 200-jet order and parallel efforts on trade terms following the summit.
