Trump meets Xi in Beijing for summit, leaves with few wins

President Donald Trump met with Chinese President Xi Jinping in Beijing for a two-day summit. The leaders held talks and were photographed together, but the trip did not produce major breakthroughs for Trump on trade or other issues.

Trump left Beijing with warm words for Xi but few concrete wins. The summit was overshadowed by Trump's domestic problems, and some commentators suggested he should have aimed for 'no deal' rather than a weak agreement.

The meetings were part of ongoing high-level engagement between the two countries, but the outcome highlighted the limits of personal diplomacy in resolving broader tensions.
