Thanks to Chris for sending: “SECURITY GATES along 12th outside the Astoria Waldorf for the Chinese President Xi Jinping visit!”
From Wikipedia:
“From September 23 to 25, 2026, Xi Jinping, the general secretary of the Chinese Communist Party and president of China, and his wife Peng Liyuan is scheduled to make a state visit to the United States, received by Donald Trump, the president of the United States.”
“According to the visit schedule announced by the White House, Xi Jinping and his wife Peng Liyuan will arrive at Andrews Air Force Base on September 23. Trump will greet the couple at the airport and hold a welcoming ceremony. On September 24, Trump will greet Xi and Peng at the White House, followed by a guard of honor review in the Rose Garden before the summit meeting. That evening, a state dinner will be held in the East Room of the White House, which will be attended by several heads of American technology giants. On September 25, Trump and First Lady Melania Trump will host a tea party for Xi and Peng at the White House, and the two sides will then visit to the National Archives of the United States to see founding documents of the United States. After the trip, Xi and Peng will return to Andrews Air Force Base and leave the United States by special plane.”
