Trump and Xi almost had a museum date, but a document spoiled it

Original version ·

Apparently, even diplomatic archives are too spicy for some world leaders to handle in the same room.

It turns out that Donald Trump and Xi Jinping almost took a field trip to the National Archives. Everything was set until someone realized that showing a specific historical document might actually cause a diplomatic meltdown.

The tension? It was all about Taiwan. Apparently, the Chinese side wasn't exactly thrilled about the prospect of viewing American records that highlight their most sensitive geopolitical sore spot. So, rather than risking a total vibe check at the museum, the whole plan got scrapped at the eleventh hour.

Nothing says international relations like getting offended by a piece of paper sitting in a glass box.
