Gregory Korte USA TODAY Published 8:10 p.m. UTC Jul 19, 2018 WASHINGTON – The White House said discussions are underway for Russian President Vladimir Putin to visit Washington this fall, as a follow-up to the highly controversial summit in Helsinki this week. White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders said Thursday that the meeting was intended to continue "an ongoing working level dialogue between the two security council staffs." She said President Donald Trump had asked his national security adviser, John Bolton, to extend the invitation.

White House urged to give full account of Trump’s private talks with Putin
The White House was under growing pressure on Thursday to provide a full account of Donald Trump’s private talks earlier this week with Vladimir Putin, as Russian officials spoke of “important verbal agreements” made. As some Democrats went as far as to push for the US translator in the room during Monday’s summit in Helsinki to give an account to Congress, Putin on Thursday hailed the meeting as a “success”. In the aftermath of the outcry from Democrats and some Republicans around Trump’s remarks, in which he sided with Putin rather than US intelligence over Russian interference in US elections, attention shifted to what was said in the private talks. This was heightened after comments on Wednesday by Russia’s ambassador to the US, Anatoly Antonov, who told reporters in Moscow the two leaders had reached “important verbal agreements”, including preservation of the New Start and INF arms control agreements.

White House accuses China of ‘Orwellian nonsense’ over airline rules
The White House has dismissed China's attempts to change how American airlines refer to Taiwan, Hong Kong, and Macau in their public materials as “Orwellian nonsense”. The Chinese Civil Aviation Administration has asked 36 foreign air carriers – including a number of American airlines – to refrain from referring to the three destinations as separate countries. China considers Taiwan a province, and Hong Kong and Macau as largely self-governing parts of the country. “This is Orwellian nonsense and part of a growing trend by the Chinese Communist Party to impose its political views on American citizens and private companies,” White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders said in a statement.
