WASHINGTON—U.S. President Donald Trump should return from his trip to Beijing this week with new agreements that benefit the United States, White House officials said on May 10.

The planned May 14 to May 15 summit in Beijing between Trump and Chinese leader Xi Jinping is expected to be a significant test of relations between the two countries. During the talks, Trump is set to raise several sensitive issues with Xi, including rare-earth exports, trade and purchase commitments, Taiwan, Iran, Russia, artificial intelligence, and cyberthreats.
