Xi urges Trump on China-US synergy, says AI must be human-controlled

President Xi Jinping met with President Donald Trump at the White House on Thursday, urging stronger bilateral ties between China and the United States. The Chinese President believes most of the pressing global problems can be resolved if Washington and Beijing deepen their relations and maintain close contacts. Xi stated that his visit, following Trump’s invitation, aims to foster friendship, expand partnership and promote the well-being of the people of both countries. Citing global changes driven by artificial intelligence and geopolitical shifts, he said China and the U.S. shoulder “a historic responsibility of advancing human development and progress.” Xi reiterated his dedication to developing the China-U.S. “relationship of strategic stability,” recalling that the international community had lauded the agreement sealed during Trump’s visit. Noting that the interests of China and the U.S. “are deeply intertwined,” Xi encouraged government departments to strengthen communication and “cooperate with sincerity.” “China-U.S. cooperation may not solve every problem in the world,” he admitted. “But, without our cooperation, it would be hard to solve many of the world’s problems.” With the two sides leading in AI, Xi said both nations have a responsibility to ensure that AI development “is always under human control” and serves the people’s welfare and prosperity. He proposed increased direct flights to facilitate two-way travel and trade, assuring that Chinese counternarcotics and law enforcement agencies are willing to enhance coordination with U.S. counterparts.

‘I’m not sure I’ll be alive by 2027 election’ – Peter Obi

The presidential candidate of the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC), Peter Obi, has expressed concern about his safety ahead of the 2027 general elections, saying he is not certain he will be alive by the time of the election. Obi made the statement during an interview on Arise TV on Thursday. The former Anambra governor said he had been petitioned and investigated in different places. He added that he was unsure of what could happen to him. “As I speak to you, I have also petitioned, I’ve been investigated everywhere. I still hear that I’m not even sure whether I’ll still be alive at the end of this,” he said. Obi said he was relying on God for protection and appealed to politicians to allow a peaceful and democratic environment ahead of the elections. “I’m praying to God for His protection because at this stage, I’m not sure what is happening,” he added. He also called on governors to allow presidential candidates and other political contestants to campaign freely. According to him, governors had the right to support candidates of their choice but should also give room for others to participate. “Some of them will be campaigning for presidency tomorrow. They will be campaigning for other offices tomorrow. Let’s have peace,” he said. Obi recalled his experience as governor of Anambra State, saying he allowed politicians from other parties to campaign in the state even when they were supporting his opponents. ‘I’m not sure I’ll be alive by 2027 election’ – Peter Obi
