(Central News Agency, Washington, 7th, comprehensive foreign report) U.S. media outlet Semafor reported today that the Trump administration is inviting CEOs of major companies such as NVIDIA, Apple, ExxonMobil, and Boeing to accompany President Trump on a visit to China next week.
NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang said in an interview with CNBC host Jim Cramer, "We should let the President announce whatever he decides to announce," but also stated, "If invited, it would be a great honor, a great privilege as a representative of the United States."
Reuters cited Semafor's report, stating that the invited list also includes CEOs from Qualcomm, Blackstone, Citigroup, and Visa.
A source familiar with the matter confirmed that Citigroup CEO Jane Fraser was invited. Qualcomm confirmed the invitation but declined further comment.
Reuters was unable to confirm the complete list of invited companies, but another source revealed that several CEOs received invitations last night.
The White House, Apple, Citigroup, ExxonMobil, and Visa did not respond to requests for comment, while Blackstone and Boeing declined to comment.
Trump is expected to visit Beijing next week to meet with Chinese President Xi Jinping, and there are high expectations for potential agreements during Trump's visit to China.
Boeing CEO Kelly Ortberg told Reuters in April that the company hopes the Trump administration will help facilitate a long-awaited large order from China.
Industry sources said that China and Boeing have been in talks for a long time, and the contract could cover 500 737 MAX jets and dozens of wide-body aircraft. This would be China's first major order from Boeing since 2017, and any announcement regarding this order would be seen as a major achievement of the 'Trump-Xi meeting.'
