> Donald Trump gave Xi Jinping a lavish welcome, including a red carpet, a personal airport reception and a state dinner. Yet China and the US only agreed to extend their trade truce to January, leaving disputes over tariffs, rare earths and advanced chips unresolved. Trump also delayed a $14 billion arms sale to Taiwan. The leaders discussed AI, with Xi stressing that it must remain under human control, while two pandas promised to Atlanta are due to arrive within days.
