Beijing Offers Cautious Response on Reported Trump, Chinese and Starmer State Visits

China’s Foreign Ministry declined to confirm media reports of a prospective April visit to China by U.S. President Donald Trump or a reciprocal year‑end visit by a Chinese leader, while offering similarly cautious language about a possible visit by U.K. Prime Minister Keir Starmer. The non‑committal response reflects Beijing’s preference for tightly managed summit diplomacy amid high strategic stakes in U.S.–China and China–U.K. relations.
