U.S.-China Leaders' Meeting! Trump's Opening Remarks Exposed! Trump stated that the Chinese leader is his old friend, and we have already reached consensus on many issues, and we will reach more agreements now. It is a great honor to meet with an old friend, and we have known each other for a long time. Trump said: We will have some discussions, and I believe we have already reached consensus on many issues, and we will reach more agreements now.

I believe we will establish a long-term excellent relationship, and it is a great honor that you are with us. Obviously, the message conveyed by President Trump's opening remarks is friendly, expressing the expectation of reaching more agreements with us. Of course, we must also point out that this kind of opening statement has an obvious polite meaning. Everyone knows that whether or not China and the United States can reach an agreement depends greatly on this meeting.

Moreover, it must be pointed out that whether or not China and the United States can reach an agreement is one aspect, but more importantly, after Trump launched the tariff war against us, Sino-U.S. relations have become very bad. This meeting helps to stabilize Sino-U.S. relations, but the big trend of Sino-U.S. rivalry may be difficult to change. Therefore, we have expectations for the meeting, but we do not have illusions. In the absence of mutual trust between China and the United States, any agreement is a reflection of the balance of power between both sides. We certainly welcome China and the United States to achieve each other and cooperate for mutual benefit, but whether to take this bright road depends very much on the U.S. choice.
