Elon Musk, Apple’s Tim Cook to head to China with Trump, per White House

Top U.S. executives, including Tesla's Elon Musk and Apple's Tim Cook, will accompany U.S. President Donald Trump on his visit to China this week, a White House official said Monday.

Beijing has said it is ready to work with the United States in pursuit of "more stability" and confirmed that Trump will visit, the first US president to do so since 2017. His trip runs from Wednesday to Friday.

Washington and Beijing have been at loggerheads over key issues ranging from trade tariffs to the Iran war to Taiwan, which China claims as part of its territory.
