U.S.-China investment disputes cloud Chinese business delegation for Xi visit

  • U.S.-China disagreements have put Chinese business leaders’ participation in Xi Jinping’s U.S. visit under question.
  • 2029 is when hardware restrictions on Chinese vehicle technology are set to take effect.
  • Chinese firms may attend a White House state dinner alongside U.S. technology and automotive executives.

Disagreements over potential Chinese investments in the United States are creating uncertainty around Chinese business leaders joining President Xi Jinping during his U.S. visit. The Board of Investment forum, created after the May summit between Xi and President Donald Trump in Beijing, remains stalled amid unresolved differences. Poor logistics and limited formal engagement with Chinese companies visiting Washington have added to the uncertainty, with China seeking arrangements matching those offered to U.S. businesses in May. One source still expects a Chinese delegation, citing U.S. business leaders’ planned attendance at a White House state dinner. Potential attendees include BYD Company Limited, Contemporary Amperex Technology Limited and Xiaomi. The gathering comes as Washington and Beijing discuss possible AI safety cooperation and debate whether Chinese automakers should be allowed to invest in the U.S. under conditions including domestic production and American hiring.
