Here to tell us more is the FT's chief foreign affairs commentator, Gideon Rockman.

Hey, Gideon.

Hi.

So give us some background about the trade environment this meeting is happening in.

Who has the upper hand heading into the talks?

So if China holds the slight edge here, what cards does the U.S.

hold?

So that's the trade side of things.

I also want to talk to you about geopolitics, particularly the war in Iran.

China has tried to broker peace between Iran and the U.S.

recently.

How do you think Trump will play that with Xi?

How likely is that the two sides can agree to anything meaningful on either trade or Iran in these meetings?

Thanks, Gideon.

— Pleasure.

— Remember that make-or-break speech from Britain's prime minister we talked about yesterday?

Well, he gave it.
