VIDEO: President Trump’s three-day trip to China was unexpectedly dominated by discussions about Taiwan and a new framework for managing Washington and Beijing’s complicated relationship. Chinese President Xi Jinping kicked off Trump’s whirlwind visit with a warning: if Washington mishandles it’s relations with the self-governing island of Taiwan, the U.S. and China could end up clashing or even in open conflict. Trump did not respond publicly, refraining from mentioning Taiwan while in Beijing, but he suggested one on his way home that Xi’s opposition might make him rethink a planned U.S. arms sale to Taipei.
