U.S. President Donald Trump said on June 29 that Chinese students studying in America would receive better treatment after increased difficulties in obtaining visas and other challenges. “We want to have Chinese students come and use our great schools, our great universities,” he said after meeting with Chinese counterpart Xi Jinping at the G20 summit in Japan.
