Xi, Trump Meet at White House; Xi Urges US-Iran Return to Islamabad Memorandum
AI take
China positioning itself as a broker between Washington and Tehran is the notable shift here, rather than the bilateral optics of the White House meeting itself. Framing the Islamabad Memorandum as the return point gives Beijing a stake in a framework it did not originate, which matters for how much weight that document carries going forward. The open question is whether either Washington or Tehran treats Chinese mediation as useful cover or as unwanted third-party pressure.
