Trump invites Xi Jinping to inauguration despite tariff rhetoric. Is it a business negotiation move? EXPLAINED

India TV News  

US President-elect Donald Trump has invited Chinese President Xi Jinping and other world leaders to his inauguration next month, an unorthodox move that would fold US allies and adversaries into a very American political tradition. Trump's unprecedented move His comments came soon after his incoming White House press secretary, Karoline Leavitt, confirmed during a Thursday morning appearance on “Fox & Friends” that Trump had invited Xi and other world leaders to attend his inauguration. He is willing to talk to anyone, and he will always put America’s interest first.” Asked at a Chinese Foreign Ministry briefing on Thursday about Trump's invitation, spokesperson Mao Ning responded, “I have nothing to share at present.” Leavitt did not detail which leaders beyond Xi have been invited. “I would just say, without doubt, it's the single most consequential bilateral relationship that the United States has in the world,” White House national security spokesperson John Kirby said.
