Donald Trump announced he has requested that Beijing postpone by approximately one month his state visit to China, initially scheduled from March 31 to April 2. The U.S. president cited the Middle East war, now in its 18th day, as the main reason for this postponement. "I want to be here because of the war," Trump said during an exchange with journalists in the Oval Office. The relationship with Beijing remains "very good," he assured, however.
