Xi Jinping is gearing up for a U.S. state visit. The U.S. military is set to give him a ceremonial White House welcome. A Trump-Xi summit is on the agenda during his stay. Prior to that, Jimmy Lai's son pleaded in Washington, D.C. for his father's release. Advocates for their part urged Trump to press the issue. Nikkei analysis says the Trump factor constrains Xi's outreach to Modi. In a separate matter, an assertion that Xi had a stroke at the BRICS Summit was eventually given a community note.
