Jamieson Greer said preparations for a May summit between Donald Trump and Xi
Jinping remain on track despite delays due to the Iran war, dismissing risks of
further postponement. The meeting, set for May 14–15 in Beijing, was pushed back
as Trump stayed in Washington. US and Chinese officials have aligned on key
outcomes and remain in close contact. Greer said further pre-summit meetings are
likely unnecessary, contrasting with remarks from Karoline Leavitt.
