President Donald Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping are preparing to meet on Saturday in Japan.

Both are facing intense domestic pressure to de-escalate the trade war between their countries.

Trump needs China to make vast structural changes to its economy while also buying more U.S. farm and manufactured goods.

Xi needs Trump to lift the tariffs he has put on Chinese imports.

With the economic strain mounting on both sides, the two are widely expected to use the G-20 summit in Osaka as an opportunity to start talking again after negotiations broke off abruptly in May.
