U.S.-China Near Boeing Jet Deal Boosting Aviation Ties

News summary

U.S. lawmakers, during a rare visit to Beijing, are negotiating a significant deal that could see China purchase up to 500 Boeing jets, signaling a potential breakthrough in U.S.-China trade relations. The deal, described as crucial by U.S. Ambassador to China David Perdue, would mark Boeing's return to the Chinese market, which is the world's second-largest aviation sector but where sales have been stalled amid trade tensions. The delegation, led by Democratic Representative Adam Smith, emphasized the importance of concluding the deal and also discussed the need for increased military dialogue between the two nations. This visit is the first House delegation to China since 2019 and follows recent conversations between President Donald Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping aimed at improving bilateral relations. Boeing's potential large order would provide a boost to the company facing regulatory challenges and competition from Airbus in China. The discussions reflect broader efforts to stabilize and enhance commercial and diplomatic ties between the world's two largest economies.
