Donald Trump welcomed Xi with a formal red-carpet ceremony accompanied by a flypast involving two US B-1 bombers, putting a prominent display of American military power alongside the diplomatic occasion.
The B-1 is a key component of the United States’ combat arsenal. The aircraft are also known for producing an exceptionally loud roar as they pass overhead, making the flypast a conspicuous part of the welcome.
The supplied material does not provide further details about the date or location of the ceremony, or outline any statements from Trump, Xi or their representatives. It does, however, highlight the combination of ceremonial presentation and military symbolism used during the welcome.
