He met Chinese President Xi Jinping in Beijing, with talks lasting about 80 minutes, longer than scheduled. The visit comes as the UK faces slowing growth and a sharp fall in exports to China, down nearly 53 percent year on year in 2025. China is the UK\u2019s third-largest trading partner. Both sides called for more stable cooperation despite disputes over Hong Kong, human rights, cyber security and influence concerns. Outcomes include lower Chinese tariffs on British whisky and visa-free travel for UK visitors.<\/p>\n<p>&#8212;<\/p>\n<p>Keir Starmer China Visit | UK | China | Keir Starmer | Xi Jinping | Keir Starmer in China | Starmer China Visit | Keir Starmer Arrives in China | UK-China Trade | Firstpost | World News | News Live | Vantage | Palki Sharma | News<\/p>\n<p>#keirstarmer #china #xijinping #firstpost #vantageonfirstpost #palkisharma #worldnews<\/p>\n<p>Vantage is a ground-breaking news, opinions, and current affairs show from Firstpost.
