The US president is on track to be the first in office to visit Shenzhen, with arms sales to Taiwan likely to stay on hold
“President Xi is coming here in September, but we’re going back for a big conference that’s in China,” Trump said at Joint Base Andrews in Maryland.
Trump has tended to skip Apec gatherings but if he does attend this time, he would become the first sitting US president to visit Shenzhen, China’s technological powerhouse.
