President Donald Trump described his meeting with Chinese President Xi Jinping as highly productive, despite Xi's warning about potential conflict over Taiwan. Both leaders stressed cooperation.

Chinese President Xi Jinping warned his US counterpart Donald Trump that missteps on Taiwan could push their two countries into "conflict", a stark opening salvo as they met in Beijing on Thursday for a two-day summit. The Chinese Foreign ministry said the comments came in a closed-door meeting that lasted more than two hours. It was followed by a friendlier, opulent banquet during which Trump and Xi stressed the importance of working together. Story by Carys Garland.
