23.09.2026 ⇢ The Day Trump Welcomed Xi to Washington
⌨

Iranian President Pezeshkian answered Trump's annihilate-or-deal ultimatum at the General Assembly, calling Iranians victims of U.S. terrorism, accusing Washington and Israel of lawless attacks and vowing never to bow while leaving the door to diplomacy open. The U.S. delegation walked out during the address, and Secretary Rubio said Tehran intended to wait Trump out until after the midterms.

Ukrainian President Zelenskyy followed with a call to choke Russia's revenues and a warning that aggression could spread beyond Ukraine.

Attention then shifted to Washington, where Trump gave Xi Jinping a rare planeside greeting at Joint Base Andrews to open a three-day state visit. Officials announced an extension of the U.S.-China trade truce as Trump cast Xi as a friend. A federal judge heard arguments over the White House ban on CNN, Politico and MS NOW but issued no ruling.
