Live from NPR News in Washington, I'm Korva Coleman.
The U.S.
And China have released statements about President Trump and President Xi's meeting today.
The U.S. Readout says they discussed economic cooperation.
China's readout says it warned the U.S.
That mishandling the issue of Taiwan could lead to conflict between the U.S.
And China.
Susan Thornton is a former U.S. Assistant Secretary for East Asian and Pacific Affairs.
The Chinese statement is quite similar to previous statements,
maybe a little bit more strident, but it 's very similar to sort of warnings they 've made in the past.
And the U.S. Statement, of course, doesn't mention Taiwan at all.
There was some speculation before this meeting that perhaps President Trump would say something new about Taiwan.
From these readouts, it does n't appear that much new has happened on Taiwan here,
which will bring great relief to those in Taiwan watching this.

Ship traffic through the Strait of Hormuz remains mostly closed.
Today, India's government says one of its ships off the coast of Oman was attacked,
but says the Indian crew has been rescued.
As the Strait remains mostly closed, more commercial ships are traveling through the Panama Canal in Central America.
