Among the preconditions, Chinese officials with knowledge of the plan told the WSJ, Beijing is insisting the U.S. remove its ban on the sale of U.S. technology to Chinese telecom giant Huawei.
In addition, China wants the U.S. to lift all punitive tariffs and drop efforts to get China to buy even more U.S. exports than Beijing said it would when the two leaders last met in December.
"Despite his preconditions, Mr. Xi isn’t expected to take a confrontational tone with Mr. Trump”, the officials added.
