Snippet:
Today's news cycle centers on President Donald Trump's summit and state banquet with Chinese President Xi Jinping, with early messaging from both sides pointing to a constructive first day. Once Trump concludes his China trip, if a peace deal emerges to de-escalate the Iran conflict - likely with Beijing leaning on Tehran to reopen the Hormuz chokepoint - the Trump administration's attention may quickly pivot to the next pressure point: Communist-controlled Cuba.
