Trump weighs postponing China trip as Iran war intensifies
President Trump is considering a significant shift to his international schedule, suggesting he may postpone his highly anticipated trip to Beijing scheduled for later this month. The historic visit, which would be his first to China since 2017, is now in limbo as the President weighs the necessity of staying in the United States while Operation Epic Fury enters its most volatile phase. While Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent led high-level trade talks in Paris this week to lay the groundwork for the summit, he clarified that the potential delay is about military leadership, not diplomatic friction.
