The invitation from Trump to Xi is an attempt to strengthen ties, despite a history of adversarial rhetoric, highlighting a strategic diplomatic outreach.
This is an example of President Trump creating an open dialogue with leaders of countries that are not just our allies but our adversaries and our competitors.
Experts argue that Xi's potential attendance would send a complicated message and be seen as him celebrating the success of a foreign leader.
Xi's acceptance of the invitation is deemed unlikely given the imposed symbolism and past frosty relations between the US and China.
