Chinese President Xi Jinping probably won't play golf with his US counterpart Donald Trump during their first face-to-face meeting this week, but he may find it worthwhile to ensure his American counterpart does not feel like he's leaving empty-handed.
Some view the informal venue of the summit on Thursday and Friday—Trump's Mar-a-Lago estate in Florida—as a sign that neither side anticipates important outcomes.
Trump, however tweeted last week that he expects "a very difficult" meeting, and on Friday said: "We're going to get down to some very serious business," referencing what he believes is China's negative impact on the US economy, especially manufacturing jobs, AP reported.
