Trump Meets Xi LIVE in Beijing to End Iran War — Ceasefire Crumbles as Tehran Vows “Never Bow”
Historic US–China summit is unfolding right now as the Iran ceasefire hangs by a thread, oil prices surge above $100, and fears grow over a wider Middle East escalation.
President Donald Trump arrived in Beijing for a historic summit with Chinese President Xi Jinping as global attention shifts toward what may become the most important diplomatic meeting of the year.
The emergency talks come as the Iran war ceasefire continues deteriorating rapidly while global oil prices remain above the critical $100 threshold.
Why This Summit Matters
China remains Iran’s most important economic partner and purchases the majority of Tehran’s oil exports, giving Beijing significant leverage in ongoing negotiations surrounding the conflict.
- WTI crude surged above $102 per barrel
- Brent crude reached $108
- US gas prices climbed to $4.52 nationally
- Iran warned Trump not to “enter Beijing triumphantly”
- Global markets fear further Strait of Hormuz disruptions
Tehran Sends Warning
Iranian officials responded aggressively ahead of the Beijing summit, insisting the country would “never bow” to outside pressure while continuing to accuse Washington of escalating tensions across the Middle East.
“We defeated you on the battlefield — never think diplomacy will make you victorious.”
Global Markets Under Pressure
Energy markets remain highly volatile as investors monitor the Strait of Hormuz, one of the world’s most important oil shipping corridors.
Analysts warn that any further disruption could trigger a broader economic crisis affecting fuel prices, inflation, and global supply chains.
