President Donald Trump on Thursday invited his Chinese counterpart, Xi Jinping, to visit the White House in September. Trump stated that he had very productive and positive conversations with the Chinese delegation on Thursday.

“The relationship between the American and Chinese people goes all the way back to America’s founding. The first American consul to China, Samuel Shaw, arrived on the first American trading ship to reach these shores in 1784. Two and a half centuries later, that first connection has grown into one of the most consequential relationships in world history,” Trump said.
