President Donald Trump personally welcomed Chinese President Xi Jinping at the airport, a rare gesture marking the start of a high-profile summit visit. The welcome included parades and a red carpet for the visiting head of state.
During the visit, the United States and China reached an agreement to extend their existing trade truce by two months. President Xi's presence in Washington D.C. has prompted street closures and parking restrictions across the city.
The summit is expected to cover various bilateral topics between the two global powers. This is a developing story and will be updated as details emerge.
