Donald Trump and Xi Jinping have agreed they want to build a stable relationship, but their competing priorities could get in the way.
Trump claims Xi is offering to help in some way with America's war in Iran, without providing military assistance.
Sky News Australia correspondent Jonathan Kearsley says Trump sees an opportunity for China to help.
But Kearsley told Mike Hosking Trump doesn't want to ask for Xi's help with Iran, because Xi will want him to change his position on Taiwan in return.
He says Trump's not going to want to budge on Taiwan.
