What happened

Well supportedReported by 6 independent outlets

China's Commerce Ministry confirmed an agreement to purchase 200 aircraft from Boeing following trade discussions between Donald Trump and Xi Jinping in Beijing, according to a May 2026 report. This initial commitment included U.S. assurances regarding the supply of aircraft engine parts to China. Separately, reports indicated that hopes for a new commitment for hundreds more jets were in flux ahead of a US-China summit in September 2026. Boeing stated that the 200-aircraft order was an initial commitment, with future purchases possible.

The confirmed order places Boeing back in competition for the massive Chinese aviation market, which is expected to order around 9,000 new jets by 2045. The deal also involved agreements between the two nations to continue negotiations on tariff pauses and duty reductions on goods.
