China’s foreign minister, Wang Yi, holds a phone call with US Secretary of State Marco Rubio, as the two countries prepare for President Xi Jinping’s planned visit to the United States next week.
According to Chinese state media, the call includes an “in-depth discussion” on high-level exchanges. Both outlets report that the conversation is intended to set up the next stage of senior dialogue between Beijing and Washington and to help finalize arrangements for Xi’s closely watched meeting with US President Donald Trump.
The reports place the call shortly before Xi is expected to travel to the White House. One outlet also highlights potential agenda items discussed around the leaders’ meeting, including trade, artificial intelligence, and broader regional issues linked to the US-Iran war. Overall, the coverage emphasizes coordination ahead of the summit, while the specific policy focus is described more broadly in some accounts than in others.
