4:05Now PlayingChina’s President Xi Jinping has told Donald Trump that his country wants a partnership with the US, not rivalry.
He was speaking at a state banquet in honour of the US President, who is on a two day visit to China.
The two leaders earlier held trade talks, with Trump saying the two countries had "the world's most consequential economic relationship".
The White House described the meeting as "highly productive". Trump, speaking at the Great Hall of the People, called it potentially "the biggest summit ever".
President Xi said previous trade negotiations between the two countries had delivered "progress", according to China's foreign ministry, but also delivered a stark warning on Taiwan, saying: "If mishandled, the two nations could collide or even come into conflict."
