Tea time between Xi and Trump:
Chinese President Xi Jinping and his wife, Peng Liyuan, had a chat over tea with U.S. President Donald Trump and his wife, Melania Trump, on Friday at the White House, during their visit to the United States.
Tea, a symbol of hospitality and respect in Chinese culture, offers more than a drink -- it creates a relaxed atmosphere for dialogue and a bridge for exchange.
In 2017, Xi hosted Trump with afternoon tea in the Palace Museum in Beijing. This May, the two leaders sat down again over tea for private talks at Zhongnanhai, the leadership compound in Beijing.
Rooted in China's rich tea tradition, chats over tea have emerged as a signature of Xi's diplomatic style. During his overseas visits, Xi has also been invited by foreign leaders for conversations over tea. #Xiplomacy

During his U.S. visit, Chinese President Xi Jinping described the Mid-Autumn Festival as "a festival of reunion" in Chinese tradition.
In English, reunion means coming together again.
In Chinese, we say 团圆 (tuán yuán) - giving that togetherness a shape.
So, why is reunion "round" in Chinese?
