President Donald Trump recently confirmed several stops on his upcoming Asia tour, during which he is expected to hash out trade deals, talk investments, and speak with Chinese Communist Party leader Xi Jinping days before a potential 100 percent tariff on Chinese goods goes into effect.

While Trump has hosted several Asian heads of state in Washington already, this is his first trip to the region in his second term.
