Trump likely to decouple the world’s most important geopolitical relationship and increase risk of global disruption COMMENT | IAN BREMMER | Donald Trump’s return to the White House will almost certainly trigger an unmanaged decoupling of the world’s most important geopolitical relationship,

Chinese people on the streets of Beijing said Monday they were keeping expectations low ahead of the inauguration of Donald Trump, as his second White House stint could push China-US ties into a new era of uncertainty.

President-elect Donald Trump announced on a social media post that he spoke over the phone with Chinese President Xi Jinping on Friday about various topics. Trump wrote in a post on Truth Social that his phone call with the Chinese leader was “a very good one”.

Foreign policy analyst Glaser says incoming US president is likely to have learned from his first term in the White House.

President-elect Donald Trump and Chinese leader Xi Jinping have discussed trade, fentanyl and TikTok in a phone call Friday, just days before Trump heads back to the White House.

Chinese leader Xi Jinping may not have personally accepted US President-elect Donald Trump’s invitation to his inauguration, but Beijing has taken the rare step of dispatching a top official to join the swearing-in ceremony in Washington.

President-elect Trump plans to visit China after taking office to improve relations, despite prior threats of tariffs. He has also discussed a potential trip to India.

Republican President-elect Donald Trump is returning to the White House for his second term as the 47th President of the United States.

With Donald J. Trump’s return to the White House, “America First” prevails. As does disruption, the conviction that might equals right and the idea that relations with allies should be transactional. His governing policy involves a peculiar combination of protectionism and imperialist proposals.
