trump: The timing is likely to raise eyebrows at the White House as it comes one week before the G20 summit in Japan, where US President Donald Trump expects to meet with Xi to discuss their protracted trade war, according to Xinhua China. Analysts say Xi could now use North Korea as leverage in talks with Trump. Xi will visit Pyongyang on Thursday and Friday at the invitation of North Korean leader Kim Jong Un, said Chinese official news agency Xinhua. China and North Korea have worked to improve relations in the past year after they deteriorated as Beijing backed a series of UN sanctions against its Cold War-era ally over its nuclear activities. But Xi had yet to reciprocate until now. The North's leader Kim Jong Un has travelled to China -- his country's sole major ally -- four times in the past year to meet Xi.
