U.S. President Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping met at the White House on the 24th. The two sides extended the trade truce agreement, but no major breakthrough was achieved. Xi Jinping urged the United States to oppose Taiwan independence and jointly manage AI, but the two sides have different positions. Analysts believe that as long as the stability of US-China relations can be maintained, it will be of strategic value to Xi Jinping.

Taoyuan City’s Daxi Puding Transfer Station is expected to open in March next year, aiming to improve holiday congestion in Daxi Old Street. City Councilor Chen Zhiwen questioned that poor planning of the entry and exit moving lines may lead to traffic chaos. Transportation Director Zhang Xinfu responded that the moving lines have been inspected and tested, and there will be no problem of being unable to meet cars.

Radio France Internationale's analysis pointed out that US President Trump gave visiting Chinese President Xi Jinping high-level courtesy, but the effect was small and the two sides struggled to achieve breakthroughs on major issues such as Taiwan and Iran.

On the morning of September 24, local time, Chinese President Xi Jinping arrived at the White House for a meeting with US President Trump. This is the third face-to-face meeting between the two heads of state in less than a year. The two sides exchanged in-depth views on economy and trade, artificial intelligence and Taiwan issues.

On the occasion of the Trump-Xi meeting, it was reported that China planned to quote the 817 Communique to pressure the United States to stop arms sales to Taiwan. U.S. Secretary of State Rubio said that arms sales need to weigh the war needs of the U.S. military, sparking discussion. Scholar Su Ziyun said that the Taiwan Relations Act has a higher legal status than the 817 Communique, and U.S. decisions are not affected by pressure from China. It is estimated that the second batch of arms sales is expected to be announced before the U.S. midterm elections.
